Real credit comeback stories

Kevin B.
opensky cardholder3
5.0

When I started with opensky I had no credit. I was in bankruptcy. All my previous cards were terminated. My credit score plummeted into the 400s. OpenSky approved me and has increased my credit limits several times due to my diligence in paying off the cards on time. And now they allowed me an unsecured card as well. My credit score is now in the 600s and rising. They enabled me when I had nowhere else to turn.

Pay. On. Time.

Don't max it out

Keep your balance under 30% of your limit6. Generally the lower your ratio is, the better. On a $200 card? Don't go over $60. Your score will thank you.

Keep cards active

Keep old accounts open with small, occasional purchases to build credit history. Those long relationships strengthen your score.

Frequently asked

What is a "secured" credit card?

A secured credit card requires a one-time refundable security deposit to open and is equal to your credit limit. For example, if you deposit $100, your credit limit becomes $100. The beauty of the opensky secured credit card is that you can open an account without undergoing a traditional credit check. This is especially beneficial if you have a poor credit history or no credit history at all.

How much will a secured credit card raise my score?

Your rate of improvement depends on a few factors, including your current status, payment habits, and your management of this and any other lines of credit. Opensky is designed specifically to help people improve their credit fast, with an online/mobile app and tools like alerts to help monitor your account. Plus you will get considered for credit line increases that turbocharge your growth.

How can I obtain a copy of my credit report?

Federal law states that you can get a free report from each of the three nationwide consumer credit reporting companies - Experian®, TransUnion® and Equifax® - once every 12 months. Don't be fooled by offers from companies to pull your credit report or websites that ask for payment to see your credit report; only https://www.annualcreditreport.com/index.action is the official site authorized by the Federal government.

Is there an annual fee for this card? Are there any hidden charges?

Yes, there is a $35 annual fee for the opensky Secured Visa® Credit Card. There is no annual fee for the opensky Plus Secured Visa® Credit Card. Opensky believes in being upfront. There are no hidden fees or charges. All of our pricing and fee information is transparent and can be reviewed (See cardholder agreements at the bottom of this page).

What is a "credit limit" and how is my credit limit decided?

A credit limit represents the maximum amount you can spend on your credit card subject to approval. You decide the deposit amount, which directly determines your credit limit. It can range from as low as $100 to as high as $3,000, depending on the card you choose. The goal is to ensure you can manage payments effectively and succeed in building your credit! *All applications are subject to approval.
