> I was rejected from the credit card I helped launch because, despite having a high income, I lacked credit history.

This happened to me. I got a job in Petaluma, CA where I was rejected for internet service because my credit history was "Unknown risk", i.e. I had no credit history. I was in my early 20's.

It was kind of a bummer to hear that this product is only for women, but seeing as it was a bummer to be a woman for most of history, I can hardly complain. :)

Best of luck! Looking forward to seeing where this goes.
