Credit cards for people with bad credit can help you improve your score and rebuild your credit. The best credit cards for bad credit have minimal requirements to qualify or are secured cards (require an initial deposit), making them accessible to almost anyone.

Boosting a bad credit score (in the 300 – 579 range) is possible through on-time payments and keeping a low balance with one of these cards. And specially designed features, such as regular reporting to credit bureaus, access to your score, consideration for a higher credit limit and less harsh fees will help along the way.
