info_outlineHave you gotten yourself into financial trouble in the past becuase of over extending yourself using a credit card? If you have, you're not alone. Knowing how to use credit cards as a beneficial tool is a game (that many of us are never taught), and each of us needs to determine if we know the rules to the credit card game and if we feel like we can follow the rules well to win the game. For some people, credit cards (when used well) can be an amazing tool to build credit and score cash back, miles, travel perks, and purchase protection. For others, credit cards are more of a temptation and cause more financial damage than any perks are worth.
In this week's episode of The Money Love Podcast I'm diving into the deep underbelly of the credit card industry with former VISA employee turned Sequin CEO, Vrinda Gupta. Vrinda had her financial "wake up moment" when she was denied from the credit card that she helped build. She then set out on her own to create Sequin, the first of it's kind debit card designed to earn women up to 6% cashback on self-care (think gyms, beauty stores, drug stores, and more) without perpetuating a cycle of credit card debt. Most credit cards earn rewards, but can get you in a cycle of high-interest credit card debt. Debit cards, while they keep you in budget, do not typically earn rewards. Sequin is the best of the both worlds, and earns you cashback -- on a debit card! This is your own money, so you can stick with a budget without sacrificing cashback rewards. Best of all, it's founded by women, for women and you will receive a custom credit card debt payoff plan to manage credit while earning cashback.There's no monthly fees, overdrafts, or minimums, and your checking account will earn high interest.
In this conversation Paige and Vrinda talk about secrets the credit card companies don't want you to know, how credit cards are designed to keep you overspending, why it can be so tricky to get out of credit card debt once you're in it, and diving into Sequin, the debit card that Vrinda created to help women combat credit card debt for good.
