How the Credit Card + Certificate of Deposit work.
You are allowed to deposit $200 up to $5,000 into a CD (Certificate of Deposit). Your credit card limit then becomes equal to the amount of money in your CD. Your credit card account information will be reported to the three main credit bureaus plus you’ll earn money with your CD.
