The credit card issuers who specialize
in applicants with poor credit make up for the higher risk of their customers by charging cardholders fairly high interest rates, and many also charge additional fees.
As a result, lenders continue to be misled into treating loan
applicants with poor credit as prime - credit candidates — worsening already critical fraud and delinquency problems in the mortgage market.

In addition, they can find the lenders who specialize in various market niches that many other lenders avoid, such as loans to
applicants with poor credit ratings, loans to borrowers who do not intend to occupy the property, loans with minimal or no down payment, and so on.
Because banks
view applicants with poor credit scores as the riskiest borrowers, these types of unsecured cards may come with other requirements attached, such as a minimum gross annual income or having a checking account with direct deposit.
Lenders who are offering personal loans that are unsecured would of course be on red alert if they meet
an applicant with poor credit rating.
Credit scores do not weigh in, and
applicants with poor credit have the same possibility of garnering approval as those with good credit.
Applicants with poor credit may find more success with secured loans, which often have lower interest rates but require applicants to submit collateral.
Some applicants with poor credit may choose to have a guarantor sign on to the lease.
