Credit cards

Citi Simplicity® Card This line of credit cards are your basic plain credit card plans, generally with no annual fee but higher than basic interest rates. These are sometimes called credit builder credit cards as they hold moderate credit limits and help the user refine and create a better credit score through revolving credit use.
Citi® Secured MasterCard® Here, you have a credit card series that has a minimum of a $39.00 annual fee with a higher interest rate, generally 3 to 6% higher than the Simplicity® series. These are backed by your savings and can go no higher then the amount locked in. It means that if you have $500.00 in saving, it now becomes the ‘property’ of Citi and is used as security against your card. This is idea for those trying to reestablish their credit.
