Frequently Asked Questions

We offer three different credit card options to meet your needs. To determine which card is best for you, we suggest thinking about what features you want most in a credit card to improve your financial lifestyle. 

If you’re just starting your credit journey or would like to rebuild credit, the Pelican Pledge might be right for you. If you plan to use your card often and want to earn points on purchases, explore our Pelican Points card. If you want a dependable credit option with a fixed rate, we suggest the Pelican Prime card.

Simply owning a credit card does not hurt your credit score. In fact, having healthy lines of credit improves your credit score over time. The only way a credit card can harm your credit score is through misuse (overcharging or missing payments).
