What is credit card consolidation? There are several meanings but the most basic definition is:
"Compressing all your current credit card payments into one monthly payment in an effort to simply the repayment process and lower the interest rate or total amount owed".

Here is a quick list of things required for credit card consolidation:
- Over $7,000 in credit card debt. Anything less and it will be difficult to negotiate with creditors as they will argue that the some can be repaid.
- A job or a steady source of income. If you are going to be able to repay your credit card debt, then you have to have money, even at a rate that is 70% lower than what you currently owe.
- Be at least 18 years old.
