Self - Build Credit While You Save

About Self - Build Credit While You Save

The Self credit app (formerly known as Self Lender) is a way to build credit history while you save*. Build credit with Self, even if you have a low credit score (or no credit score!)

Over 500,000 people have used Self’s Credit Builder Account to build credit and save more than $300 million. With the Self Visa® Secured Credit Card, you have even more opportunities to build credit after you get started.

How does it work? Think of it as a plan that builds credit while you save, starting at $25** per month.

1. Apply for a Credit Builder Account. Your money is safe and secure in a bank account.***
2. Pay off your Credit Builder Account in 12-24 months.** You can choose the payment term and dollar amount that best fits your budget.
3. Each on-time monthly payment builds credit history and adds to your savings*. Your monthly payments are reported to all three credit bureaus while the principal gets saved in a bank account.***
4. Unlock your savings. Once you’ve paid off your Credit Builder Account, your money unlocks and comes back to you (minus fees and interest).

BUILD CREDIT. SAVE MONEY*
With an active Credit Builder Account, your payments are reported to all three credit bureaus.

CREDIT SCORE MONITORING INCLUDED****
With the Self credit app, you can check your credit score at no cost. The mobile credit tracker!

NO HARD CREDIT PULL
Self does not do a “hard pull” credit check when you create an account. In fact, no credit score is required at all!

SECURE ACCOUNTS
All accounts use two-factor authentication, 256-bit encryption, and fraud detection to protect your money and private information.

UNLOCK THE SELF VISA® SECURED CREDIT CARD
Have an active Credit Builder Account in good standing, make at least 3 credit builder account monthly payments in full and have $100 or more in savings progress and you could unlock access to a secured credit card – no extra deposit and no hard credit check needed.
