Кредитные карты с плохой КИ — условия 2026

Even if a borrower has a bad credit history, they can try to apply for a credit card — the approval rate for them is much higher than for regular consumer loans. This is due to the fact that banks bear less risk, because even if the cardholder stops making payments, the lender can simply reduce the credit limit or restrict card operations.

Features of credit cards with a bad credit history

Credit cards for borrowers with a poor credit history come with certain features and restrictions. Among them, we can highlight the following:
Small credit limit — the initially available amount for a client with a poor credit history will be minimal (no more than 10,000 to 20,000 RUB). Later, if the cardholder demonstrates responsible debt repayment, their credit limit may be revised.
High interest rates. At most banks, interest rates outside the grace period are set individually based on the borrower's profile. For this reason, credit cardholders with a poor credit history will be offered the least favorable terms.
Inability to obtain a credit card from a major, popular bank. Such lenders as Sberbank, VTB, Alfa-Bank, Gazprombank, and others have sufficient customer bases and therefore will not take the risk of issuing credit cards to borrowers with a poor credit history. The same cannot be said for smaller and newer banks.

Which banks offer credit cards for borrowers with a poor credit history in 2024?

As specified above, credit cards for borrowers with a poor credit history are mainly available from smaller and less popular banks. However, there are also major financial institutions that are loyal to such clients.

For example, we recommend looking at the following credit cards:

• “ALL Airlines” от Т-Банка Банка;
• “Т-Банк Drive” от Т-Банка Банка;
• "MTS CASHBACK" from MTS Bank;
• "MTS Dengi Zero" from MTS Bank;
• "Virtual" from Kviku.

Who is eligible for a credit card with a poor credit history and what documents are required?

• under 18 and over 70 years old.

As for documents, a Russian Federation passport is usually sufficient to apply for a credit card. In certain cases, documents confirming income and employment may also be required.
