No, but when applying you will need to report some type of income. Your income is one of many factors that Discover considers when considering your application for a Discover it Student Chrome Credit Card. If approved, your amount of income can also influence your credit limit. On your application, you will be asked to provide the income you earn or can reasonably expect to earn.
Students sometimes use income from a part-time job to qualify for student credit cards.
If you use your Discover it® Student Chrome card responsibly,3 it can be a helpful part of your strategy to build a credit history.
