Selecting the right credit cards is an import part of the process of establishing and maintaining good credit. Not all credit cards are alike. Depending on the type of card and services offered credit card companies can vary interest rates and types of payments.

Many credit cards companies offered secured credit cards as a way to reestablish or start building your credit. So what is a secured credit card?

A secured credit card requires that you pay an upfront amount to the credit card company to guarantee the money they will actually "lend" you when you utilize your credit card.
