 TITLE: How Secured Credit Card Deposits Work CONTENT: A Deposit on Your Future\n------------------------\nPutting down a deposit on a secured credit card may be painful, especially since you can't use that deposit to pay your credit card bills.

Ultimately, the deposit on a secured card is a small investment in building a good credit score, a robust credit history and a better financial future—and you can't put a price on that. END
