Whether it’s your first-time establishing credit or you need a fresh start, we’re here to help.

Your credit score and history have a strong impact on your financial future. A good credit score can open the doors to helping you reach your financial goals – whether it’s getting an auto loan for a new car, signing the lease on a new apartment, or perhaps securing a student loan to go to college.

Here’s how the Credit Builder Loan¹ works:

You borrow $1,000, which is placed into a Savings Ltd account
You make on-time monthly payments, which we report to the credit bureaus
When the loan is paid off, the funds are released to you – plus dividends earned²!

Features:

Flexible payment terms from 12 to 37 months
Fixed loan rate of 8.25% APR³ regardless of your credit history
Access to a wide range of financial wellness tools and resources, including our partners at GreenPath
