Bankruptcy has a negative impact on credit history so it is worth to wait at least two years before you can apply for a credit card. If two years have passed you can consider applying for a secured credit card. To get this card you will be asked to pay a collateral deposit which will be a base of your credit limit. The amount of the deposit is usually around $200. These cards report your credit performance to major credit bureaus, so in a due time and if you making on time payments you will be able to improve your credit history.
