For those with less-than-great credit scores, secured credit is a great way to get access to a line of credit with relatively favorable terms.

Then, each time you make a purchase on your credit card, this security deposit will act as collateral. Through responsible use of a secured credit card, you can boost your credit score and eventually qualify for a better credit card.
