This is one of the best secured credit cards out there. The unique feature of this card is that you may only be required to put down a portion of the initial credit limit of $200 (making it a partially secured credit card). You are also eligible for a credit line increase without having to put up additional deposits after 5 months (we know of no other card that has this feature). They are also one of the rare secured cards that report as unsecured. The only thing we could nitpick is that they do not have a reward program!
