No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
I just saw that Target is offering $40 off a future purchase of $40+ when approved for a Target RedCard now through 3/22.
I'm thinking about applying for the debit card. I'm at 5/24 and waiting to apply for a Marriott Boundless card in August when I'm below 5/24. Is it safe to assume the debit won't affect my 5/24? Or will I get declined and have to recon and explain that the last account is a debit?
Additionally, is it more risky to use a debit card that is linked to my checking account over a regular credit card? If so, I might wait until after I get my Marriott card if I would be better off with the (store) credit card over the debit.
Nothing wrong with the red debit card and $40

Definitely will not cause trouble on your CR. I got one also! Apparently you can use the certificate at checkout, in person, and the code online!
It should be fairly secure too - even the debit version is chip and pin security.
