As far as I know, there is no need to pay any fees for applying for a credit card. If you need to pay in advance for the card, it is recommended that the landlord be careful about the safety of funds. Although it is not 100%, this situation is deceptive in nine cases out of ten. In fact, it is very simple to apply for a credit card now. You can apply at a branch or at a bank in official website. Generally speaking, the things that need to be prepared to apply for a credit card are:

1. Copy of the landlord's ID card or household registration book.

2. A copy of the real estate license in the name of the applicant;

3. Proof of family car in the name of the applicant;

4. There is also the need to submit the official salary table issued by the work unit for the last 3 months, if it is an office worker;

5. And the landlord's employment certificate/income certificate (official seal of the company is required);

6. It is best to have a copy of the personal income tax payment certificate in the last three months under the landlord's name;

Generally speaking, you can only apply for a credit card if you have prepared the above materials, but it seems troublesome to prepare quickly. Finding a third party to handle credit cards is not only expensive, but also unsafe. I hope my answer can help the landlord!
