A practical, step-by-step plan to reduce and eliminate consumer debt using disciplined budgeting, a repayment strategy (debt snowball or avalanche), and actions to increase income and savings.
Becoming Debt Free
Debt Consolidation In
Debt consolidation groups multiple debts into one payment to simplify finances and, when chosen carefully, reduce interest or monthly costs. Compare options, watch fees, and consider nonprofit counseling.
Platinum Credit Cards
Platinum credit cards offer enhanced rewards, protections, and digital conveniences, but benefits and costs vary by issuer - choose based on your spending and the card's fee and terms.
Zero Interest Credit Cards
Use 0% introductory APR offers and secured cards to build or rebuild credit - pay on time, watch fees, and plan for the end of the promo period.
Credit Card Instant Approval
Instant approval gives a fast credit card decision online, and sometimes immediate digital access. Learn how instant approval works, what to check before you apply, and how to use new credit responsibly.
