  • Build credit history – a strong credit history, reflected in good credit scores, will let you qualify for lower interest rates and fees., freeing up additional money.

How does it Work
Make payments over time. Turning a bad credit profile into a good one doesn’t happen overnight. The credit builder loan holds the amount borrowed in your OCFCU account while making small payments over time. You receive the funds once the loan is paid, ultimately raising your score to good standing.

Improve Your Credit Score
The higher your credit score, the more favorable your interest rates; credit scores help millions of people like you gain access to the credit they need to get an education, buy a first home, or cover medical expenses. A good credit score can save you thousands of dollars in interest and fees as lenders are more likely to extend lower rates if you present less risk for them.
