Our innovation increases access to financial products and homeownership for millions more Americans. Our models are among the most inclusive in the United States, powering billions of credit scores annually.

We are fueled by a talented team and seek individuals who can help us achieve our ambitious goals. At VantageScore Solutions LLC, you'll experience a fast-paced start-up culture while benefiting from the financial stability of being backed by top US credit bureaus.

VantageScore consumer credit scoring models combine financial inclusion with dependable predictiveness across all scoring ranges. As an industry leader and technology innovator, our models score approximately 94 percent of adults aged 18 and older – including 33 million more people than conventional models – without compromising safety and soundness.

Lenders using VantageScore can extend credit to historically marginalized groups, including minorities and lower-to-middle-income Americans. Our credit scores are used by over 3,000 banks, fin-techs, and other companies daily to assess consumer creditworthiness.

Last year, we saw a 30% yearly increase in the use of VantageScore credit scores, totaling over 19 billion. Top 10 US banks, large credit unions, and leading fin-techs use VantageScore credit scores in various lines of business, including credit cards, auto loans, personal loans, and more.

In 2024, the FHFA will require VantageScore credit scores for all mortgages sold to or guaranteed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. We're poised to lead the industry in predictive power and financial inclusion.
