Make sure you use the Cap One card frequently,  pay in full every month. After paying them on time and in full for at least 4-5 months, app for another Cap One card (QS1). Also try a secured card with a Bank. You need at least 3 CC's in order to build your score within a reasonable timeframe..

I have no credit history. What-so-ever. I was just granted a Cap One Platinum card. I need to build my credit, and fast. What unsecured credit cards will approve me? I have only had my Cap One card for a month and have only made one payment so far.


As states previously. There is no way to just quickly build your credit report. There are many factors when establishing a good credit file. One of which is AAoA, which this one takes years to build and it's also 15% of your score.

 

While you can have a good score quickly, your score is only a small portion of what lenders take into consideration when making lending decisions. I have seen people with a +700 credit score be denied credit due to insuficient credit history.

 

On-time payments go into this as well, which also takes time to build. It's 1 on-time payment per month per account.

 

Take it slowly, and be mindful of what you are doing.

Fast and quality do not go hand in hand when it comes to credit.
