No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
I believe for pre-approval its only a SP. What CRA. Dont know. Check your reports. If you apply for a loan then its a HP. Call and ask who they pull in your area.
For me I was preapproved/qualified in December. They pulled my EQ first, then when I went in for a car COAF pulled all 3 of my reports. Hope this helps.
