 TITLE: What to Consider When Choosing a New Credit Card CONTENT: 1\\. Credit Score Requirements\n-----------------------------\nCredit card issuers don't necessarily have (or share) a minimum credit score requirement for each of their cards, but they may offer some general guidance. Certain cards may primarily be intended for people who fall within certain credit score ranges—whether that's poor or very good or somewhere in between.\nThe Experian CreditMatch™ credit card marketplace can show you recommended FICO® Score☉ ratings for each card. You can get your credit score for free from Experian to see where your FICO® Score stands and then apply for cards that align with your score. Or you may want to improve your score first, and then apply after it increases. Doing so can increase your chances of a successful application. END
