Frankly I find this completely disgusting and predatory. The marketing is clearly trying to appeal to a popularity contest individual. It specifically targets Gen-Z and wants to offer them 4x their average credit given out today. The references[0] linked to where they get these stats say that in demographics are higher credits are granted, the lower the average score is.
Gen-Z listed in the reference is average score of 667 (the lowest of all the others) and average total credit was $8k. Compared to Milennials and Gen X etc all being over 20k.
So they want to 4x a Gen-Z'ers credit. They're targeting "flare" popular marketing. They even have an element that lets you hear what it sounds like for the metal credit card to drop.
It has an unboxing tout to appeal to the unboxing fad, like unboxing a credit card is a thing to appreciate it.
This is disgusting. It's predatory. The incentive and motivation is to capture a generation struggling into debt slavery.
This is abhorrent.
