Starter Credit Cards Market By Type (Student Credit Card, Secured Credit Card, Unsecured Starter Credit Card), By Annual Fee (No Annual Fee Card, Low Annual Fee Card), By Provider (Banks, NBFCs, Credit Unions, Others): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2023-2032

A starter credit card is designed for people who have a limited credit history or no experience with credit at all. These cards provide access to the credit system, helping users establish a positive credit history as they use the card responsibly and pay their bills on time each month. In general, there are three types of starter credit cards which include secured credit cards, student credit cards, and unsecured credit cards for bad or no credit.

The starter credit cards market is driven by the rise in emphasis on financial inclusion. Starter credit cards offer a pathway for younger demographics or individuals with lower incomes to access financial services and establish a credit history. As a result, the demand for starter credit cards is driven by the broader goal of fostering financial inclusivity and providing opportunities for those who do not qualify for traditional credit cards. For instance, in November 2021, OpenSky, the digital banking division of Capital Bank, N.A., expanded its product offering with the addition of the OpenSky Visa Gold Card. The OpenSky Gold Card is an unsecured credit card that complements the highly rated OpenSky Secured Visa Credit Card, tagged by Forbes ADVISOR as a “good option to help rebuild your credit.” This new addition offers an uninterrupted experience for OpenSky customers who now more easily continue in their journey from secured to partially secured to unsecured credit card. In addition, the advancements in digital technology have transformed the starter credit cards landscape. The rise of online banking, mobile apps, and digital payments has streamlined the application processes, approval mechanisms, and overall account management for starter credit cards. The convenience offered by digital platforms has become a key driver in the growth of the starter credit card market, aligning with the evolving expectations of consumers in the digital age. However, the limited credit limits and higher fees associated with starter credit cards hamper the market growth. Furthermore, the delicate balance of credit risk management, as stringent practices may lead to rejections for those with limited credit history restraint the growth of the market. On the contrary, leveraging advanced analytics and alternative data sources presents an opportunity for financial institutions to assess creditworthiness more accurately, potentially expanding the market reach of starter credit cards in the upcoming years.
