well first of all you can not legally get a credit card untill you are 18 yrs old. But to answer the ? you can go online and type credit cards and then you will be in credit card heaven. Of course most of them have very high intrest rate so be carefull and make sure you look at the annual fees if any because they can range from $0-$200 and that will be automatically taken out when the card is activated and will be a part of your first bill. Also, make sure you get a card that does not require you to open a savings account with a min. deposit. that is mostly $300 or more depending on your credit score in which you shouldn't have any credit because of your age. If you need more info im me.

talk to your parents. you may be able to swipe theirs! you can't get one in your name unless your 18 yo. but i know a good excuse to use your parents! they can open one in their name and you can tell them you will get a part-time job (their are some jobs out their for minors atleast 16 yo). then tell them you will learn how to keep good credit history and you will pay for everything on the bill that you used to swipe the card. bad thing is no privacy. if your thinking of buying things that are not so good be careful because the statements show the titles of things you buy like the company name/item name. other than that it gives you more of a reason to get a card at 18 once you show your parents how you can handle having plastic and knowing its not free money. trust me, i got sooo disciplined about this!
