What Should Your Credit Score Be To Get A Good Credit Card?
A reader asks…
Is it 600 or above? I am working on fixing my credit and I have an auto loan that will help rebuild my credit. I need a credit card for emergency’s and to help my credit, just wandering when I should apply for one. Right now Its not near 600.

well i think around 675-720 is good.. anything over 720 is great 550- 674 is above average… 400-549 is about average anything lower then 400 is bad.. but i would say still salvageable unless you go below 200 then it would be really hard… i say this because my credit score has all ways hovered around 669 due to an old account but recently i had a payoff which upped me to 678,, at which time my auto loan interest rate dropped about 8% to
10.5% and i was able to get 2 5000$ credit cards at 8.9% fixed interest wich i think is awesome.. don’t know if i could get lower on that.. hope that helps you some
