Where it costs you
- −$75 first year, then $99 a year billed at $8.25 a month
- −The fee is charged against your opening limit, so a $300 line starts at $225
- −APR near 30% with a tiny credit line
The Compound Verdict
The fees do the damage here. You pay $75 to $99 a year for a $300 line that the fee itself shrinks on day one, while a Discover it Secured builds credit for free and pays real rewards on a refundable deposit. If you can scrape together $200 for a deposit, the secured route wins by a mile.
