Credit Compound

Credit One Bank

A subprime specialist commonly confused with Capital One, right down to a near-identical swoosh logo: the two are unrelated, and Credit One's products are far more expensive. Most of its lineup carries annual fees up to $99, monthly fee billing, and small credit lines reduced by the fee itself. The Wander travel card is the one genuinely competitive product in the stable.

Application Rules

  • Pre-qualification is a soft pull; the exact fee schedule is assigned at approval and varies by applicant
  • Annual fees are often billed monthly and charged against the credit limit, shrinking a $300 line from day one
  • Read the cardholder agreement before accepting; multiple cards share the Platinum name with very different fees
