Get a rewards card of some kind. Secured cards come with tons of fees. Never the less, if you get any card, secured or otherwise, it will ding your score only a few points for the hard inquiry.

You could get a prepaid debit card and that way it would not even be reported on your credit report. I am assuming that is all you really want, because a secured credit card makes no sense with your high score. I think walmart and western union both have card with low or no fees. You should check those out. Yes do not get a secured card with your credit score. You could get a prepaid debit card and that way it would not even be reported on your credit report.

You're better off using a debit card, since that's pretty much all a secured card is anyways - minus the fees. You shouldn’t need a secured card if you already have a high score.

It might lower it a bit but once you start using the card it should bring it right back up again Not really.

Secured cards are for people who have bad credit. That is why your score would drop. The same for using a high interest finance company, you use them if you have bad credit so just the fact that you have one of those types of accounts will put a ding on your report.
