Is there a type of credit card that has a higher rejection rate?
“Generally speaking, all credit card providers vet applicants based on the same primary factor: your credit score. The better a card’s features, rates and fees, the more likely it is you’ll need a high credit score to qualify. So rejection rates have less to do with the card type and more to do with the card quality.
Of course, some types of credit cards have a wider variety of premium options – travel and reward cards for example. You’re much more likely to run into a credit card with stiffer credit score requirements in these categories.”
