Secured credit is credit or a loan which uses something as collateral. In some cases, this could be an asset like a house. In a few cases, this collateral could be money frozen in an account by the bank for just such a purchase.
If you require credit following a huge problem with your credit score, secured credit may be something you can qualify for. You can use this secured credit to reestablish a good credit rating so that you will qualify for other loans in the future. You may have to pay slightly higher interest if your credit score is quite low, but in the long term repaying this kind of loan can improve your credit score.
Secured credit is less than ideal for many reasons, but if it is your only option you can use it wisely to help your debt situation. Secured credit is better than no credit at all.
