I would like to put my own web site and sell some of my stories online. I already know how to get an online account, but I’m wondering what will it take to get a credit card from my local bank when you’re self-employed online. What do you need from your own website that would allow you to own your own credit card. Are there very vital documents involved that I would definitely need to obtain one from my local bank ? Please tell me what I have to do to get it?

I have a student credit card with Chase, but I also want to open their amazon one because I buy tons of stuff from Amazon. Please relevant feedback only. Nothing about APR rate, risks, etc. I never spend more than 10% of what I have saved up in my checking account, thus I’ve never had one late payment in 3 years (I’m 22 now). Please leave that stuff out. Thanks.

I am looking into getting a Chase or Citi credit card but my bank account is with Bank of America. Can I still apply for and get a credit card from Chase or Citi without having a bank account with one of them?
The BoA credit card fails to impress me…
Thanks.
