"Excellent for rebuilding poor credit. I've taken out their credit build option twice now, it effectively builds credit history over time and is worth the costs."

"The use of my Cashplus account has greatly improved my credit rating"

Is Creditbuilder right for me?

If you’ve recently moved to the UK, don’t have much credit history or your credit score could use some help, Creditbuilder is a handy tool to get you moving in the right direction. You’ll be entering into a 12 month contract, so you should only sign up if you're sure you can commit to making all 12 payments on time.

How Creditbuilder works

  1. Creditbuilder is a 12-month loan that you repay over 12 monthly payments.
  2. We lend you the equivalent of 12 months in account fees (£71.40 with an Activeplus or £119.40 with a Deluxe).
  3. We hold these funds for you, so you won't see them in your account and won't be able to spend them.
  4. You pay your monthly account fee as normal and we take it as a payment against your Creditbuilder loan, which we report to the Credit Reference Agencies.
  5. Once you've made all 12 payments on time, you'll have successfully paid off your Creditbuilder loan, which could help improve your credit score.

Getting Creditbuilder is simple

 

Already have a Cashplus Account? Simply add Creditbuilder to your account via Online banking, with no joining fees. Too easy.

 

New to Cashplus? You’ll need to open a Cashplus Activeplus account and request Creditbuilder as an ‘add-on’ during the application.
