    I'd like to get a credit card for my daughter. She is 13. It could be on my name. But I'd like her to use it. Most important I need for that account to be with max $150-$200 credit limit. Also I'd like not to pay annual fees. Can you help me to find one?

    You may be able to apply for a card, ask for the small limit, and getone issued in her name

    There is a cardservice out there that caters to those who want to give cards to their kids. You set the credit limit, however I believe it is similar to a check card in that you either put money into an account or you actually "purchase" the limit. Cost was only around ten dollars per card. Unfortunately, I recently cleared my history file and don't recall the name. Perhaps someone else on the board does.

    Vlad, Capitol-One bank offers Visa's for high school kids (teenagers) you set the limit, and I'm not sure but I believe there
    was no annual fee. You could always call or
    visit their web site. Capitol-One is a good bank to start your daughter out with.
    Hope this has helped.

    If you have good credit, you should be able to open any credit account you want. Then after you're approved, ask the issuer to lower the credit limit to $150 or $200. Just make sure that your daughter is an authorized user on the account.
