CreditStrong helps people establish credit by offering installment loans and revolving credit lines. Instead of immediately giving you the money, it has been deposited into a savings account. Then you begin making monthly payments.
The loan and the savings account both charge interest, which helps to reduce your overall cost. Customers can improve their credit score by making a series of loan payments. CreditStrong will also notify the customer's payments to all three credit bureaus.

SECURED LINE OF CREDIT
This hybrid financial product begins as a credit-builder loan, with fixed monthly payments required into Self's certificate of deposit (CD) savings account. You could graduate to a secured credit card without having to make an additional upfront security deposit if you make three on-time payments, have at least $100 in savings, and keep your account in good standing. (The savings in the CD serve as your credit line).
The combination of a credit-builder loan and a secured credit card could improve your "credit mix" and, as a result, your credit score.
