¹Approval Odds are not a guarantee of approval. Credit Karma determines Approval Odds by comparing your credit profile to other Credit Karma members who were approved for the product shown, or whether you meet certain criteria determined by the lender. Of course, there's no such thing as a sure thing, but knowing your Approval Odds may help you narrow down your choices. For example, you may not be approved because you don't meet the lender's "ability to pay standard" after they verify your income and employment; or, you already have the maximum number of accounts with that specific lender.

²From December 2023 to April 2024, members with a TransUnion credit score of 619 or below who opened a Credit Builder plan and had it reported on their TransUnion report saw an average credit score increase of 21 points in 3 days of activating the plan. Late payments and other factors can have a negative impact on your score, including activity with your other credit accounts.

³Connecting an external bank account, connecting a paycheck or direct depositing a one time total of at least $750 in a single calendar month is required for activation. Your connected external bank account, connected paycheck or direct deposit(s) must be received in the 2 calendar months prior to application or within a calendar month 90 days after application submission to activate your plan. Credit Builder plan requires you to open a line of credit and a savings account, both provided by Cross River Bank, Member FDIC. Credit Builder is serviced by Credit Karma Credit Builder. Members with a TransUnion credit score of 619 or below at the time of application may be prompted to apply for Credit Builder. If your score increases over 619, you may no longer see these prompts.

For direct deposit: Direct deposit(s) are electronic deposits of compensation for services (such as payroll, salary, or government benefits) made into your Credit Karma Money Spend account. Person to person transfers, transfers from one account to another or from other financial institutions and Instant Transfers (including Instant Transfers for Earned Wage Access) are not considered direct deposits.

For connected paycheck: We partner with Pinwheel to securely connect you with thousands of payroll providers.

Credit Karma is not a bank. Banking services for Credit Karma Money accounts are provided by MVB Bank, Inc, Member FDIC. Maximum balance and transfer limits apply per account. Credit Builder is not provided by MVB Bank.
