I'm not sure if this would be the right place for this, so please excuse me if it's not.
So my son is almost 16 and has a nice part time job.
He has had his own checking account for a few years and has maintained that without any issues.
Now that he is driving, he would love to get a credit card vs. using his debit card for purchases like gas, etc. (at least a credit card gives you a little more purchase protection against fraudulent charges vs a debit card) I know I use my credit card vs. debit card for this very reason.
My question is, does the Disney Chase Visa offer a student credit card?
If not, can I add him as an additional card holder on my account, but maybe set a limit for him of $250 or $500. Just so he can build a credit history as well as be protected on his purchases.
I would prefer that he has his own card so he can be a little more independent and start building his own credit history.
Thoughts?
