Ask HN: API for credit scores

1 点作者 kilimchoi大约 8 年前

I was wondering why this kind of service isn't available yet. Some credit bureaus seem to offer an api but there's no good documentation and it seems to require going through an approval process. Can there be something like Stripe for checking your credit scores? Why doesn't a service like this exist yet?

All of the major credit bureaus offer APIs. But you have to get approved (not easy) and pay. Credit information is both confidential and proprietary.

There are a few apps that do free credit monitoring by doing API requests to the major bureaus on the backend.

Checking your own score? Or anybody's score?
