Credit affects so many areas of your life — from loans to insurance to housing — so establishing a good score is
essential. And Credit Builder Plus app makes it easy!
It all starts with payment history, the top driver of your credit score.4 Credit Builder Plus includes a loan that helps you establish 12 months of payment history with all three credit bureaus. You’ll also get 24/7 credit monitoring to track your progress.
And while most credit builder loans don’t give you any of your funds up front, we’ll give you a portion of your loan funds right away and access to 0% APR cash advances.
With us, you can cover today’s expenses while you build credit and save. All with no hard credit check.1 Instead, we will conduct a soft credit pull that will have no impact to your credit score.
MoneyLion is not only a really convenient and easy to use app, but it also helps you boost your credit score as long as you keep up on-time payments! How great is that?! See what they do is give you a $1,000 loan, but only make a portion of that loan available to you, that way, once you’re done making your on-time payments, you can have the rest of the cash to spend however you’d like PLUS a credit score boost! WIN-WIN!!!

MoneyLion gives you an opportunity to save invest and build your credit all in one place. I would give 10⭐️✨✨?? Stars if I could!"
"Great service.. fast and service.. instant money when you need it not like other apps that make you wait after you pay them back like a few days till they let you again.. thank you and I plan on keeping this great bank and also the loan program is awesome build my credit and get money when other have said no."
"Never seen anything similar to it. Helps build your credit. Gives you a bump in pay on payday. Once paid back up can instantly borrow again. Love it."
"It was pretty good to get a little in the beginning and then pay and get a lump sum at the end. I’m on my last payment so we’ll see how getting my money back goes but with everything else I’ve dealt with with Moneylion, I’m confident there will be no issue with that either. I recommend them for people who need to build a little credit."
"No hidden fees, straight forward, Easy system for repayment and requests. Even gave me a credit builder loan when no one else would so I really like them so far"
"Your great service has helped me and saved my credit unbelievably. I was able to pay an unexpected payment due to your wonderful service. I love you ! And thank you so VERY MUCH..... PATRICIA BUGARIN"
"I’ve done the credit builder loan twice and it’s super easy and it helped raise my credit score. Granted it takes a full year to pay the loan back but it’s such a low payment I never notice the payment that is automatically withdrawn from my checking account every Friday. The Instacash option is a helpful feature as well if you a little extra cash before payday! "

You can apply directly in the MoneyLion app and we’ll let you know if you’re approved for the Credit Builder Plus membership almost instantly.
If your account doesn’t qualify, please try again when it has been open longer and/or had more consistent deposits and positive balance — or try connecting another checking account!
Here are a few more tips on qualifying for Credit Builder Plus:
Based on your financial history as detected in the checking account you linked when applying for Credit Builder Plus, we’ll split your loan funding into two parts:
By holding some funds in the Credit Reserve Account, we are able to give you the opportunity to build your credit with consistent payments over the 12-month term of the loan.
The Credit Reserve Account will be in your name, and you’ll be able to see it in the “Finances” tab of the MoneyLion app. Think of it like instant savings! When you pay off your full loan amount, it may take up to 10-14 days to get the money from your Credit Reserve Account distributed to you after you have initiated your final payment.
If you have an active RoarMoney account and debit card, we’ll disburse the funds to that account. If not, we’ll disburse the funds to your external checking account that you use for your loan payments.
Your Credit Reserve Account is an account maintained by MoneyLion’s SEC-registered investment adviser, ML Wealth, LLC, and held by Drivewealth LLC, member SIPC and FINRA. The funds in this account will be placed into money market and/or cash sweep vehicles and may generate interest at prevailing market rates.
You will not be able to access the funds in your Credit Reserve Account until you have paid off your Credit Builder Plus loan. You may use it to pay off your loan in full, if you choose. Learn more here.
The Credit Reserve Account is not a transaction or trading account. If you default on your loan, your Credit Reserve Account may be liquidated to partially or fully pay off what you owe.
The Credit Builder Plus membership costs $19.99/month. We will schedule your membership fees and loan payment due dates to align with your paycheck frequency to make payments easier.
For example, here’s how the $19.99/month membership payment breaks down by pay schedule:
To view your membership payment schedule click into your Profile menu in the top left corner of the app and navigate to the Membership page.
Your loan payment will be collected as a separate transaction and will include both the principal payment and interest due. Your loan payment schedule can be found by clicking on the “Loans” tab in your app and then selecting “Payment Schedule”.
Remember, Credit Builder Plus members can earn a Lion’s Share payout of up to $19.99 at month end by logging into the MoneyLion app every day and using their RoarMoney Debit Mastercard for 20 or more purchases of $10 or higher in a calendar month. Learn more here.
