### 4/5 — Confused About Card

*2026-08-23*

I paid the $5.99 thinking the credit card was to be UNsecured. Turns out I was wrong and it’s a secured card instead. I wish it was a bit more clear beforehand that I’d have to load my own money onto the credit card

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for the feedback. We’re sorry there was some confusion about how the Bolster Card works. The informational screen in the app explains that the card requires you to load funds before spending. This allows you to safely spend from your own money, so there’s no risk of overspending or debt, while still growing your credit history. If you have questions or there is anything our team can help you with, please reach out to support+iosreview@bolster.co.
