How does Pave build my credit score?

Pave can build your credit score in three ways. None of these require a hard credit check, and can help if you are new to credit or looking to build your credit.

Free: After you connect a bank account, we scan your account for recurring subscriptions and bills. We then send smart alerts to encourage on-time payments of your recurring expenses. This shows you can repay expenses on time and in full, and can help build your credit score.

Is Pave safe?

Portify/Pave is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority under firm registration number 828125/826665. This means we have been approved to access and display your banking information. You can find us on the FCA register.

What is my credit score?

A credit score is made up of five factors according to Experian: payment history, credit utilisation, credit history length, credit mix and how new your credit is. Each factor has a different weight in deciding your credit score.

Below you will see a list of factors according to Experian.
- Payment history
- Credit utilisation
- Credit history length
- Credit mix

What credit score does the Pave app show?

We show your TransUnion credit score.

We’re working with TransUnion as they’re one of the UK’s top Credit Reference Agencies, whose records are checked by some of the major UK banks and credit providers.

What about your credit score,
how is it?

The average Experian credit score in the UK is 759, but only 68% of people even know what their score is.

Hear this out

40% of people in the UK believe it is getting harder to move up in society.

Our financial system doesn’t make it easy. It likes to push you into more debt instead of offering products that keep your finances healthy.

Pave is here to change this. Not everything has to be about selling you more debt.  There is a better way to build credit if you've never had credit or have imperfect credit.

We offer a simple product with a single membership fee and no hard credit checks.  Instead of selling you more debt, we help you take the best actions for your credit health and pay your bills on time.

We exist to put a stop to the financial inequality that is spreading in our society. We are doing this by building the world’s best credit builder.

Our backing

We are proud to be backed by investors who share our values, including early backers of N26 and the founders of Monzo and Indeed.

We're sorry!
If any of the above apply to you, using Pave to build your credit score is not a good idea. This is because even if you build your credit score, many lenders may not extend credit to you on the basis of you having such markers on your credit file.
