Credit Builder Card

An unsecured card designed for thin-file or low-credit applicants, often with no deposit required.

Credit-builder cards trade rewards for accessibility. Petal 2 uses bank-cash-flow underwriting; Mission Lane is a no-rewards rebuilder for the 580-620 FICO band. The cashback rate isn't the point — graduation to mainstream credit is.
