how do you get a store card?

Answer 1

Simple. Apply online. Apply in-store or say "yes" whenever an associate ask you if you would like to open an account with them.

Doing the application with the associate offer express credit which is automatically approved or denied based on your creditworthiness.

For this you'll need a major credit card, ID or driver's license and your Social Security number.

Normal revolving charge cards take 15-points of your FICO score but be aware that express credit takes 20-points
.

Answer 2

Go to the store that you want to open the card at, or some stores you can apply for on their website. At the retail store I worked at, you needed some information first in order to apply, so make sure you have the following with you: Valid drivers license, social security number, some form of credit reference (such as a major credit card, or some stores will take store credit cards), and a phone number. A lot of the time you won't even have to fill anything out - the associate will do it all for you on the computer. Make sure if you do fill anything out that any sensitive information like your SSN is safe or destroyed before you leave. Good luck!

Answer 3

Go to the store that you want to get a credit card from and fill out an application. Usually, a store associate will process the application on the spot and most stores offer some kind of discount if your use your new card for purchases on the day you open it.

Answer 4

Apply for the store card you want.
