Never add a friend as an authorized user on your credit card, to help them build credit. I know people that call themselves friends that always want to be helped at the cost of other people and that’s not being a friend.
I’ll tell you a quick story, I had a client and he cosigned a few loans for his kids, and then they stopped paying and guess who ended up having to keep up with the payments, the dad did.
I learned one very valuable lesson in life, always help people but never at a cost to you. Of Course sometimes you will help a friend and help them carry burden they can't carry on their own, and that will cost you something but that’s okay because they can't do it. But to help a friend do something they can do themselves and end up destroying your future is just foolish.

1. What is an authorized user and what are the pros and cons
-It's like riding in a two seat bicycle with one pair of pedals
-The main account holder does all the work and they are responsible and that helps you build credit without having to get your own credit card
Pros:
-If you have a credit card with some good rewards, then you can double up on them because now you have two people
-The Person builds credit with your help
-The person doesn’t need to get approve for their own credit card if they don’t have any history or bad credit
Cons:
-The main account holder is 100% responsible, so if I go crazy or just miscalculated, then you are liable ( the authorized user is not legally responsible to pay anything )
-If the primary user is irresponsible and miss some payments, they will hurt the authorized user also
-The primary user will get all the rewards
Bonus:
-When the time comes to remove them, this may hurt their credit
-Because it will lower their available credit and lower the average age of their account also
2. Teach them how to do it ( secured credit card )
-A secured credit card is a card, that requires you to make a deposit to use that as part of your credit limit
-They are the easier cards to be approved for if you are new to credit
-And they also have ones that don’t require any credit like the OpenSky credit card
Here are some credit Options:
-Capital One Secured Credit Card
-Discover Secured Credit card
-Chime Secured Credit card
3. Invisible Authorized
-This is done usually with parents and kids
-But you can also do it friend and family
-But there is one risk ( they could always request a new card to be sent to their address )
The benefit here is:
-You remove all the risk of them doing something that may hurt your credit
-You remove the friction of having to have conversations about things being spent
4. Tell them the truth
-Tell them the method I told you they could use to build credit
-Second tell them, you can buy a house without credit by doing manual underwriting
-Third tell them about the invisible authorized user
Lastly: if they don’t want any of these options, apologize, and say if their any other way I can help let me know but I cannot go beyond this.
