Personal finance management and credit building

About Empower

Empower.me provides personal finance management and credit building services through a subscription model. Users can sign up for a 14-day free trial, after which they pay $8 per month for access to various financial tools. These tools include customizable payment plans, budgeting features, and credit score monitoring. A key aspect of Empower.me is its focus on helping users build credit by reporting their payments to credit bureaus, which can enhance their credit history if payments are made on time. Additionally, Empower.me offers a Thrive line of credit, which involves a soft inquiry on the user's credit report, ensuring that their credit score remains unaffected during the application process. Unlike many competitors, Empower.me specifically targets individuals with no minimum credit score, aiming to improve their financial health and savings.
