About this app

With over 400,000 downloads, Grow Credit, featured on the 2022 Forbes Fintech 50 and recognized as one of America's most innovative companies, helps consumers build credit for free using their subscriptions, with no prior credit history required.

Your credit score is different on Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion. Having a strong score on all three matters as mortgage lenders, car dealers, and credit card companies often review more than one to determine a consumer's creditworthiness. Grow helps you boost your credit score quickly on all three.

Grow your credit with your subscriptions in three easy steps:

- Apply for your Grow MasterCard.
- Link your bank account.
- Add your subscriptions: Netflix, Hulu, Spotify, or over 100 others.

Your subscriptions will be billed to your Grow MasterCard, and we’ll automatically debit your bank account every month and report your progress to all three credit bureaus.

A better credit score means lower interest rates on future loans, which could save you tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Applying for Grow will not result in a hard credit pull and will not affect your credit score.

The press raves about Grow:

Techcrunch.com: Grow "is a pretty elegant way to solve a problem that’s a real barrier to entry for a large number of financial services. Credit scores can impact mortgages, the ability to receive small business loans, and a host of other services that are ways to boost economic opportunity."

Creditcards.com: Grow is "a very useful tool for climbing the ladder and eventually qualifying for a better card."

Nerdwallet.com: "The Grow Credit Mastercard is ideal for those with no credit or poor credit."

Ratings and reviews

Don't sign up for this if your credit is already good. This app cost me -29 points . It wasn't clear that a credit line would be added to my credit report. "no credit check" was very misleading. As if they would not affect your credit. Went from 719 to 690. The additional line of credit was definitely not expected and I would not have signed up if it was clearly made known. I had just opened a 6th account with AMEX. I had 0 intent to add any lines of credit for some years. Remove from my report

It's for building credit, that's it. The results take time, the entire credit building / credit repair process takes time. If you think you'll sign up and see an improvement in your score within a few weeks you won't, that's not how any credit builder app works. This should be one of many apps like this you use. Payment history, length of credit history and credit mix together make up 60% of your score. Apps like this, 4-6 total IMO, are part of fixing your score.

Fantastic app to consolidate your subscription to one place and build credit. Yes, a credit card can do this as well. But this reports to credit bureaus faster than my credit card. Definitely, something to try out for yourself Already brought my credit utilization down on my Credit Cards. The fee isn't bad but not something I can complain about. But you have a free option.
