The Canadian credit card – asset or liability?
Applying for a Canadian credit card is easy and most people can get a card with little effort. The kind of card you can receive will vary widely depending on your credit history and earnings. A student or person with bad credit will get a secured card, which limits spending to the amount they put on deposit. Because no credit is issued, there is no risk for the Canadian credit card Company.
Before filling out your application for a Canadian credit card, do a heart to heart with yourself to determine your need. What is your motive for getting a card? Is it for emergencies only? Can you resist the temptation to overspend? Is the purpose to rebuild damaged credit? Is your income and job steady enough to support your monthly payments? Be sure to check out all the fees associated with a Canadian credit card. Get a low APR, a grace period, no or low annual fees, and watch how cash advances and balance transfers are handled.
If you plan to pay of your Canadian credit card each month, it is a definite asset to your credit and will be appreciated when emergencies arise.
