It was a easy and quick experience… It was a easy and quick experience using Nova Credit to get my American Express credit card approved based on my credit history in Brazil. I didn't believe I was going to get such a good credit card. I hope they can help more immigrants build their credit in US based on their native country history.

Highly recommended Extremely useful way for a new arrival in the US to get a decent credit card and build a credit rating. Application very easy, decent range of credit cards (I recommend one of the Amex Blue cards)...and makes life a lot easier in terms of signing a lease for a flat/phone etc

Smooth and painless Smooth and painless, I received an Amex CC after 15 minutes with an extra call to Amex. The Irony is I am a Canadian who has paid taxes and utilities on a home in the US for over 12 years and there was no US credit history on me. Even a major bank where I have had an account to manage this for all those years wasn’t able to help me get a card. The Canadian Credit rating companies are often owned by American firms and I am shocked those organization cannot or will not transfer info between the 2 counties.

Great service offering! Using Nova Credit allowed me to access an American Express credit card quicker than I otherwise would have been able to. The online process was easy and it only takes a couple of minutes. The one thing people should be wary of is: the verification of address step that American Express now requires. My application was held up for over 2 months, while I waited to get phone bills, utility bills, etc that had my US address on it. They wouldn’t accept something like a sublease agreement. This step is out of Nova Credit’s control, but something people should be aware of when they are moving!

Really frustrated/ waste of my time Really frustrated. Did not work at all. You try to register at novacredit, it asks you basic questions about if you have a SSN / are you in US? But never asks about your other credit history in your country. Instead it gives you a list of credit cards associated with Nova (American Express) you might qualify for. It sends you to their webpage, and at NO POINT...did they ever ask me about my background credit history from Canada, even though I clicked "Foreign Credit History" earlier It says "Thank you for the submission, well let you know if you've been approved" So it's no wonder I got declined. Really absurd system.
