In-Depth Credit Card Review |
This online card application is intended for residents of the United States only. For other country options, please refer to the right hand menu bar.
The Continental Finance Gold MasterCard®, issued by First Bank of Delaware, is a credit card designed for those with poor credit who would like a second chance.
The main benefit of this unsecured credit card is that it reports to credit bureaus. This is a rare opportunity for those with poor credit who would otherwise only qualify for secured or prepaid cards, which often do not report to credit bureaus or charge fees to report to credit bureaus.
This card has a very low APR of 9.75%, and it has an average annual fee of $25. It also charges a monthly maintenance fee of $12 ($144 per year). However, the monthly maintenance fee is waived for the first month. There is a one-time account processing fee of $200. This means that the total amount of fees that a cardholder can expect to pay in the first year will be $357.
Cardholders will also receive free online access, excellent online tools for managing their finances, and semi-annual credit limit increases.
Therefore, those who want a second chance with their credit, do not mind paying the various fees, and would prefer an unsecured credit card may find the Continental Finance Gold MasterCard® to be beneficial.
Most Attractive Feature: Reports to credit bureaus; no security deposit required.
Least Attractive Feature: Annual and monthly fees.
