How do I check my Fingerhut Credit Card application status?

The Fingerhut Credit Account approval requirements are to meet all the general standards, like being at least 18 years old with a U.S. mailing address, SSN, and the ability to pay. Plus, you can get the Fingerhut Credit Account even with bad.

It is one of the easiest “credit cards” to get approved for, and it can help you improve your credit standing if used responsibly. “Even if you have been turned down for credit, give us a try,” Fingerhut Credit’s webpage reads. “We can often say Yes! when others say no.”… read full answer

So, you don’t need any particular score to get the Fingerhut Credit Account. There are a few situations where Fingerhut will have to say no, though. Being in the middle of bankruptcy is one of them.

Here are the Fingerhut Credit Account approval requirements:

• Applicants with bad can be accepted
• 18+ years old
• United States mailing address
• Social Security number (SSN)
• Enough income or assets to afford monthly payments
• No active bankruptcy
• Not a member of a consumer credit counseling service
• No past-due minimum payments while in the Fingerhut FreshStart program
• No foreclosure, tax liens or other derogatory marks on your credit

As long as you avoid the negatives, you should have a good chance of Fingerhut Credit Account approval. And the best part about the process is if you’re not qualified for the card, Fingerhut might instead enroll you in their FreshStart program.

With this program, you’ll be able to make a Fingerhut purchase between $50 and the spending limit they give you. You must make a down payment of at least $50 toward the balance, and then pay off the rest in the time limit they specify after (usually a few months). After you finish paying the balance off, as long as you weren’t late with any payments, you’ll graduate to the regular Fingerhut Credit Account. The FreshStart program doesn’t report to the credit bureaus, but the regular account you’ll get afterward does.

So, a Fingerhut Credit Account is easy to get approved for and it’ll help you rebuild your credit. And to top it off, there’s a $0 annual fee. But the only issue is that you can only use the card for Fingerhut purchases. If you’re looking for a card you can use anywhere, there are several good options available.

Your Fingerhut credit card limit will depend on your creditworthiness, income and debt.
