How to add PRIMARY TRADELINES to your CREDIT REPORT

Call us today @ (888) 502-3111 support@creditsavvi.com

A primary tradeline is an account that shows on your credit report as your account, versus being an authorized user’s account. It’s important to have a good mix of accounts on your credit report, including primary tradelines AND authorized user tradelines.

Ideally, you want to have at LEAST 3 OPEN, POSITIVE accounts on your credit report, between primary tradelines and seasoned authorized user tradelines.

Primary tradelines go through a much more rigorous validation process than authorized user tradelines. There are several legitimate companies that exist for the sole purpose of reporting primary tradelines to your credit report.

Below are our favorite legitimate primary tradeline options that will help BOOST YOUR CREDIT SCORE and build a solid foundation for your credit report.

We recommend to try and get at least the TOP 3 LISTED BELOW ASAP.

1. Online Jewelry Club

This is an oldie, but a goodie. Join their jewelry club, purchase about $100 or so worth of jewelry and they will report a $5,000 primary tradeline on your credit report. Ensure you make the payments because they are reporting that also.

2. CreditStrong

This is a secured credit card in your name used for the sole purpose of helping you build your credit score.

No minimum credit score required so there is 100% hope for you!

The credit limit is low, but you have to start somewhere in order to establish and build your credit back up.

3. Self Lender

This one is way different from the others, but still a great choice especially for account diversification.

No minimum credit score required so there is 100% hope for you!

This is a CD (certificate of deposit) that reports to ALL THREE CREDIT BUREAUS, and you get the money back after it matures in one year.

There is a small origination fee (around $9 – $12) then small monthly payments after that based on how much you want the CD to report as.

Each payment is reported to the 3 credit bureaus (don’t screw this up!). At the end of the term, you’ve paid off the loan and you can get the money back + interest – hence saving money while boosting your credit.

6. Oxpublishing.com

This is a $2,500 secured line credit reported in your name (no credit card is mailed to you).

Typically this reports to Equifax only, this may change over time though.

There is a minimum purchase required in their online store, typically $180 purchase that you would financially so as 2018, it’s about $30 to get started, then finance the rest in monthly payments. [Note at time of this writing, this was the price.]

7. Hutton Chase

This is a secured credit line in your name for $1,500 that can be used only at their website.

Product purchase of $180 is required however only a $30 activation fee is due at time of purchase [Note at time of this writing, this was the price.]

8. Wells Fargo Secured Credit Card

This is another great option for building, and rebuilding credit.

If you have ever defaulted or had a late payment with this bank, do NOT select this option as they will run your credit and likely deny you.

9. Experian Boost

Experian will report *utility bills* to your Experian credit report, in exchange for your bank account information (that is where they will verify your payment history each month). This is free! You can only “self report” to Experian though. How do you feel about providing your bank information in exchange to report your phone/electric bills?

You can sign up for access >>here<< or if you already have an Experian account then you can access “Experian Boost” in from within your Experian portal.

**Sidebar: A note about Capital One Secured Card and Discover Secured Cards – Although they are secured cards, they are still extremely difficult to get approved for if you have negative items on your credit report. Also if you have ever defaulted with them or had a late payment, you are most likely going to get denied so better to NOT waste a credit inquiry on them. That is why I put this list together because these are things you can get approved for easily with challenged credit.

Items 1 – 7 & #9 above are the easiest to get.

Mortgage primaries, sorry my dear, you have to buy a house in order to get a mortgage to show on your credit report. 

However, if you know of anything that I did not list here that actually reports, please let us know so we can share with our clients
