Magic score needed for mastercard synchrony cards

I have 4 synchrony backed stores cards that I got within the last week. My Transunion score is sitting at 642. What score do I need to get the mastercard versions?

Congrats on your cards. Im gonna say 680 plus will get you most of them. The closer to 700 the better.

I was not able to get any synch mc or visas until my fico was 698-720.

Well, it's true! Synch is a strange beast to deal with when it comes to their branded Mastercards.

Bhahahahha! This cracked me up!!

Do they offer you the mc upgrade automatically when your score rises or do you have to ask for it?

I don't know. I closed the store cards and waited for my scores to go over 700 before dipping my toes into the Synch waters again. I would have been pissed if I got another store card

Yes, hate to say it but they're easier to get the higher your score is.  Mine was 742 at the time.  I would hold out for those.  Less store cards the better.
