New Delhi [India], April 18: For the modern consumer, having access to credit is essential for meeting various expenses with maximum value on each rupee they spend. Rewards programmes, cashbacks, discounts, offers: all of these make using credit cards well worth their while. Some financial experts will tell you that if you’re not using a credit card to pay for things, you’re missing out on a lot of value for your hard earned money. However, obtaining a credit card can be challenging, especially for individuals with limited to no credit history, no prior or present work experience or income.
Fortunately, there are many types of credit cards available and Kotak811 offers a solution that bridges this gap by providing a credit card against fixed deposits (FD): a no ifs no buts kind of way to access credit and build a solid financial foundation. The card is called the DreamDifferent Credit Card and comes with plenty of benefits.
Benefits of a Credit Card Against FD with Kotak811
* Assured and Secured Access to Credit
Kotak811 offers a credit card against FD, providing a secured credit option for individuals who may not qualify for traditional unsecured credit cards. By pledging a fixed deposit as collateral, applicants can secure a credit card and enjoy the benefits of credit card usage without the need for a credit score or income documents.
* Guaranteed Approval, Always
Unlike traditional credit cards that require a thorough credit check and documentation, a credit card against FD offers guaranteed approval. Since the credit limit is secured by the FD, there’s no risk for the issuer. This makes it a cakewalk for applicants to qualify, apply, and access credit cards.
* No Income No Worry
One of the significant advantages of a credit card against FD is that it doesn’t have any income requirements. Whether you’re a student, homemaker, or self-employed individual with irregular income, you can still apply and qualify for a DreamDifferent Credit Card by opening an FD as collateral.
* Build Credit History Step by Step
For those looking to establish or improve their credit history, a credit card against FD provides an excellent opportunity. By using the card responsibly and making timely payments, cardholders can demonstrate creditworthiness and gradually build a positive credit profile. The card more or less assures responsible use by limiting the monthly credit limit to 90% of the deposit’s value.
* Continue to Earn Interest on the FD
As customers continue to use their card responsibly and pay their monthly bills, their FD continues to grow through the power of compound interest. The interest rate on the FD is set before it is opened, as is the fixed tenure over which it will earn the same. This is the predominant factor behind so many investors preferring FDs as safe, assured, and secured options.
