<prompt> Human: I have never had a credit card of any kind before. I just got a new m-f job and need a way to commute to work, since the bus routes dont take me close enough. I have been spending way too much money on commuting via uberlift in general. There is a very efficient electric scootermoped I want to buy on Amazon for 1,500. I keep reading that if I am instantly approved for an Amazon credit card I can use it immediately. I cant find any official policy about if they will deny my purchase for being too big right away suspecting fraud. Although, I keep reading reviews saying this is a problem. Is this a good credit card to have as my first credit card? I use amazon a lot. But I really just want it to buy this scooter and help build my credit. Will I only cause myself trouble by trying to buy such an expensive item right away? Assistant: Do you really want to start off your credit life by carrying a big balance on a card that you cannot repay right away?Human: Well, I guess not. But I dont know what the best way to start building credit is.  <response>: Use your card to buy things you could and would buy with cash. Pay your statement balance in full every month.It you want the scooter, save the money first. Then you can use the card to buy it, and pay it off when the statement posts.
