  • Connect your account to our Credit Boost system.
  • We deposit a small verification amount into your account.
  • You return the verification amount to us immediately.

A: Once you complete the verification process, we report this positive transaction to the credit bureau, which can help enhance your credit history and potentially raise your FICO® Score.

Loan Application Process

A: Verifying account information is essential to ensure accuracy, prevent fraud, and assess the borrower’s financial stability. This step helps us provide a secure and reliable loan approval process.

A: We use advanced P2S technology to access and review bank statements from the last 3-6 months, allowing us to thoroughly assess borrower credibility and financial stability.

A: We review transactions from the last 3-6 months to confirm that the borrower has a stable income, demonstrating their ability to afford loan repayments.
