All FAQsWhy does Ava exist?
Ava is here to help you build credit and save money on debt. The best way to tackle debt is to find the lowest cost of debt possible so you pay as little as necessary. We create a personalized step by step plan, first by helping you build (or rebuild) your credit history.
How does Save & Build Credit work?
The Ava Save & Build Credit account4 is the perfect way to build both your savings AND your credit history. Save & Build Credit is a secured loan where you pick anywhere from $25-$100 every month for 12 or 24 months to be put aside in your Ava Wallet. Since you committed to this program, we report each payment towards the secured loan to the credit bureaus as a successful on time payment. This helps your credit history and after the term is over, you get ALL the money back. It's a win win!
It's important that you make on time payments towards this secured loan. If you miss payments or stop payments before the term is over, we will have to report a missed payment to the credit bureaus which may hurt your credit score. Make sure you're ready to make the commitment.

Which Credit Bureaus do you report to?
We report to ALL three major bureaus (unlike most credit building products in the market). We report your file to TransUnion, Equifax and Experian within the first week of you joining Ava.
