Could a prepaid credit card benefit your credit score?
There are many prepaid credit cards that can benefit your credit score. They usually charge you annual fees, but they report to all three major credit bureaus each month, which can help you get back on your feet if you have bad credit. No, they cannot. Your name and personal information aren't linked to that card and there are no bills to pay to prove your credit-worthiness. A secured credit card works similarly to gift cards and will improve your credit score.
How do you get a Credit card for with no credit history?
You need to start with a secured credit card. As long as you place a minimum security deposit of $200 you are guaranteed approval for a secured card. In addition, after you place the security deposit a secured credit card works in an identical way as a regular credit card. The only difference is that when you close your account and assuming you are not late on any of your payments you get back your security deposit :) Do not confuse secured credit cards with prepaid cards. Prepaid cards or prepaid credit cards are debit cards that are for people that do not want to get a traditional checking account with their bank. Finally, you do not build credit by having a prepaid card but you build credit by having a secured credit card. I went to a jewelery shop (Crescent Jewelers) and I bought jewelery and they asked if I wanted to pay in payments. I applied and it helped me a get a credit card down the road. If you don't want jewelery try buying a gas card (not prepaid) or something small and simple. And don't miss the obvious card, your bank! (they should have one.) Virtually any adult can apply for a credit card. You will need your name, date of birth, address, and social security number. However, just because you apply for a credit card does not mean you will be approved. You must have a co-signer to add you as an authorize user to establish a form of credit. From their your credit will take some time to build up. I have never had a cosigner. A good spot for a first card is a place like Orchard Bank or some department store card. You will receive a low limit at first and with quick payment and responsible use, you will have a good credit report in no time.

Where do you refill prepaid cards?
If the prepaid card you have does not bear your name and you haven't registered the card online, then your only option for reloading the card is through one of the "cash reload networks"; the main ones are Moneygram, GreenDot, Western Union and PowerPay. Your card, or the package in which the card came, will tell you which of those cash networks is available and what retail locations to go to. You would typically have to go to a pharmacy or grocery store or convenience store of the available network to refill the card with cash.If the prepaid card has your name embossed on it, then you can also refill it via direct deposit, by asking your employer to deposit part or all of your salary in the card: the card comes with a Direct Deposit Account number that you give your employer, much like a checking account number.Some prepaid cards also have more refill options than just cash or direct deposit: check the website of the prepaid card provider to see what's available. Some prepaid cards can be refilled from a credit or debit card. Some prepaid cards can accept bank transfers via eBillme.
