It shows up in everyday moments:
- Whether you’re approved for an apartment.
- How much you pay for insurance.
- The rate you’re offered when you need a loan.
Better credit can help you:
- Pay less when you borrow
- Have more options when you’re looking for a place to live
- Reduce insurance costs over time
- Feel steadier when life throws you a curveball
If your credit isn’t where you want it to be, you’re truly not alone. Today, nearly 1 in 4 Americans has a credit score considered fair or poor, which can make everyday financial decisions harder. And surveys show that most adults feel unhappy, stressed, or frustrated about their credit and financial situation — often because they want to improve, but don’t know where to start or feel stuck by limited options.
We see you as more then a score, at First Eagle we believe in helping people move forward.
Your credit score doesn’t define you. It’s simply a tool — and with the right support, it can help you build something better.
How it works:
- You make a deposit, which becomes your credit limit
- You use the card like any other credit card
- Your on-time payments are reported, helping you build credit over time
Because the card is backed by your own deposit, it’s designed to be safer, more predictable, and easier to manage — especially if you’re focused on rebuilding.
What to expect:
- Minimum deposit of $100
- Fixed interest rate with no surprises
- One-time $25 setup fee
- Your deposit stays in your Prime Share account as security
Building better credit doesn’t happen overnight — and that’s okay. Small habits, like paying on time and keeping balances low, can add up over time. And you don’t have to figure it all out on your own.
Why build credit with First Eagle?
