Experian Boost

Thanks to open banking capabilities, Experian Boost has enabled more than 6 million consumers to leverage their telecommunications, utility, cell phone, and streaming service payments. That real-time data can boost FICO® Scores, increase financial inclusion, and enhance decisioning for lenders. The Finicity-Experian relationship has proven, once again, that consumer-permissioned data, combined with smart insights, opens the door to new possibilities.

Mastercard Open Banking’s new credentialed payroll enhancement was one of the simplest product launches we have done. The new experience integrated smoothly into our existing processes with no impact to loan processing workflows and an efficient borrower experience. We are excited to digitize our loan application experience with a much more cost-effective way to verify income and employment.
