It's pretty decent

I don't have much experience with economics and money management, but I have to sat that this has helped me navigate my finances better than I would do on my own

Good for credit

This app is really obliging when it comes to boosting credit

Helped my credit

I used it to get a secured card and establish payment history

Good way to boost your credit score

Self is a good credit booster, however, when you stop using there services, your score will drop significantly. As long as you have there services and keep paying every month, your credit score is good. I would have given it 5 stars, but when you cancel their services, your score WILL drop significantly.

Useful

It will boost your credit a bit, which is great!

Small credit score boost

I used this as a way to boost my credit. It won’t have a huge impact on your score, but will provide a slight increase.

Good, if You're in a Pickle

This is a good resource if you can't trust yourself with a credit card or have had to file bankruptcy and are looking to rebuild credit. It's site is user-friendly. However, there are a lot of fees, so if you have another choice available to you, it's worth looking into that.

better than CK.

Totally accurate listings, plus i love that they help you apply for new ones you never would've thought might help you.

Self is the first credit builder is started with.

It's easy and the incentives of self are very nice.

Decent credit builder

Self Loan is a type of loan that lets you borrow money and yet establish credit. Regular payments are made to a collateralized savings account, and credit bureaus are notified of these payments. For people trying to establish credit, it could be a decent choice, but be careful to read the conditions and costs.
