FAQs about applying for a credit card

Here are the most frequently asked questions about applying for a credit card from Neo.

Why can’t I create a Neo account?

If you're unable to create a Neo account, your email or phone number may already be linked to an existing Neo account. Try logging in to your existing account. If you're unable to log in, call us at 1-855-636-2265 for assistance. 

Will Neo do a credit check for my credit card application?

A standard credit card is subject to a hard credit check, including when you’re pre-approved for a credit card. Neo will use the information from credit bureaus to verify your identity and confirm you’re eligible for the credit card.

If you want to avoid a hard credit check, you can apply for secured credit card.

Can I switch to a different credit card?

You can request a switch to a different credit card between Neo Credit card and Hudson’s Bay Mastercard every 6 months. Chat with us to switch to a different card. You can’t switch to a different card if you've requested to switch your card within the past 6 months.

Can I change my credit type if I made a mistake in my application?

If you selected the wrong credit type in your application (such as secured credit instead of standard credit), chat with us to see if our team can restart the application. You can’t change the credit type after the application is submitted or if the application is under review.
