To complete your application, you'll need to provide:

• • Current address and previous addresses (if applicable)
• • Employment information and annual income

All information is encrypted and protected by industry-leading security standards. We never share your data with third parties without your explicit consent.

Absolutely. Security is our top priority. We employ multiple layers of protection including 256-bit SSL encryption, PCI DSS compliance, and multi-factor authentication. Your data is stored on secure servers with regular security audits and penetration testing. We comply with all federal privacy laws including GLBA, FCRA, and ECOA.

To be eligible for the Home Depot credit card, you generally need to:

• • Be at least 18 years old
• • Be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident
• • Have a valid Social Security number
• • Have a regular source of income
• • Maintain a valid U.S. mailing address

While we welcome applicants with various credit backgrounds, approval depends on your individual financial profile. Even if you've been declined elsewhere, we encourage you to apply - our underwriting team reviews each application individually.

If your application is declined, don't worry - you have several options:

• • Contact our support team to understand the specific reason for denial
• • Request a detailed credit report review and recommendations
• • Reapply after addressing any identified issues (typically after 6 months)
• • Consider applying with a co-signer or authorized user status
• • Explore alternative financing options we may have available

Our customer service team is available 24/7 to discuss your situation and provide personalized guidance. We're committed to helping you find a solution that works for your financial goals. Many applicants who were initially declined have successfully obtained approval after a short waiting period.
