Credit Card industry is going through changes. Those who have good credit have no problem getting cards. But what about those who have a poor credit history or just getting started?
There is help for them as there is credit card services are emerging. These services will identify candidates that would-be credit card holders even if they do not have good credit history. The acceptance is determined by the applicant’s actions rather than just their credit score.
The innovative but realistic approach of qualifying applicant based on the digital record it builds for its users. Rather than just looking at borrowing history, it looks at how much that user makes, spends or saves each month, and looks to offer them more differentiated products like lower interest rates on introductory products. The main goal here is to get people who should be able to responsibly manage a credit card based on their spending history.
It is heartening to note that finally credit card industry is taking steps in identifying potential customers without a credit history. It reflects that the credit score might not be the best indicator. The new approach is designed to identify potential applicants with their technology and thus eventually build up their big user base.
