beware of this debit card if you use it, you have to pay it back right away. If you can't pay it back, they will ruin you. They will make your credit score drop as much as 70 points.

Written by the company

Today, over 100 million Americans don't want or can't get a credit card... and we understand why! Credit cards come with cons. Like overspending, high-interest rates, inaccessibility, and mountains of debt. But, a great credit score can change lives. Especially with important long-term goals, like securing a housing mortgage, or getting the best possible repayment plan on your big purchases. Despite this, there are very few credit-building alternatives. Enter Extra. Our mission is to create a safer, more accessible credit experience with the ease and predictability of a debit card. With Extra, you can relax as you work towards your long-term goals and avoid the pitfalls and traps of a credit card—no credit checks, no interest rates, and no hidden fees.

"Actually Improving My Credit!"

What makes my experience great with Extra, is magnificent customer service, when something unexpected happens! Such as, if my bank balance has not been updated, but the money is there, I contact concierge, and always, always, received topnotch assistance! What I like best about Extra, my credit score results!!!

I’ve actually fallen in love with this card! It’s basically a debit card that lets you earn points and the reward shop has really good options to chose from. Saving my points for a $50 target gift card. Customer service was phenomenal as well!

Can't go wrong!

It's been an all around great card to use, the rewards system is nice and any issues I've had (which have been very few) have been resolved in a very timely manner.

Must have!

As someone who is looking to manage his budget, the Extra card really helps with that. I have reached out to customer service more than I have with any other company and they have been more than helpful to all of my needs. I have been using Extra for over a year now and it is my default card of choice!
