Maintaining good credit is one of the best things that you can do for yourself financially. Having good credit allows you to buy a home, a car and so much more. One of the first things that my dad said to me when I turned 18 was to establishing my credit and maintain it for the rest of my life.
Having great credit can really open up a lot of doors for you in this world so it is really to your advantage to monitor your credit actively. Credit Karma™ offers various services that can help you out. Credit Karma™ offers many different tools and resources so that you can fully understand your credit data, what impacts it and how to take control of your credit and finances. They can help you do all of this and more.
Your credit score is the most defining metric of your overall financial health. It’s going to determine whether you’re approved for a home, apartment, car, credit card — and will even be used to evaluate whether or a not a company should hire you. An excellent credit score means you will get the best interest rates and best benefits — it will literally save you money.
I don't know about you but all of the places where I can get a credit score kind of confuse me. I am not sure where to look or who to contact or if I even need to contact them all. Credit Karma™ makes it easier by offering a real score versus an educational score.
Credit Karma™ is mission-oriented and pro-consumer plus they provide your weekly credit score and report, credit monitoring and more — all completely for free. With Credit Karma™ they want to put you back in control of your credit data.
With Credit Karma’s™ free credit monitoring, your credit report is monitored by Credit Karma™ on a daily basis, and they notify you of any significant changes on your report — many consumers use redit monitoring as an added layer to prevent identity theft.
With more than 30 million members, Credit Karma™ is able to conduct in-depth analysis of the likelihood you will receive credit approval. And because of their large membership, Credit Karma™ also offers really useful user reviews so consumers can understand how satisfied others are.
A cornerstone of Credit Karma’s™ mission is assisting consumers with shopping for financial products. They’ve worked with more than one hundred lenders (credit card issuers, loan providers) so that they can feature products and offers tailored to each member’s unique credit profile. Credit Karma™ is able to match credit and personal finance profiles with financial products that make sense, removing a big pain point when it comes to shopping for credit.

I had my credit checked last year when I refinanced, but I think I am going to check it myself using Credit Karma!
I wish someone had told me about the importance of credit and finances when I was a teen. I made some bad decisions from the time I was 18 until about 24, and we are still paying for some of them! I need something like Credit Karma to keep a close watch on my credit now.
I try to check my credit once a year. I will look into Credit Karma especially with all the stories on the news about credit card information being stolen.
My Home Depot account was hit . I’m told not to worry, but Credit Karma sounds like it will give me more peace of mind than an email from the store management.
I’ve seen the commercials for Credit Karma but did not realize they offered so much! Thank you for this review. The screenshots/photos really allowed me to see what they offered. Will check into it. Always good to stay on top of your credit, especially as a single Mom.
I like checking my credit now and then. Keep an eye on it.
I have heard wonderful things about Credit Karma and staying on top of your credit is so important. My daughter actually uses this.
My daughter’s friend is working for a consulting company for Credit Karma. It seems like a really neat company.
This sounds so helpful! I only check my credit once a year, but I really need an update more often to ensure everything is okay.
Credit Karma is good news! I believe we need to be in control of our finances.
It’s a terrible habit, but I usually let my husband deal with my credit. I know I should step up and take control myself, so I should look a little more into Credit Karma!
Credit Karma looks like it has a lot of benefits. I want to reestablish my credit again and I definitely needs some good credit karma right now!
I don’t know my credit score! Heading over to check it out now!
I am huge fan of Credit Karma. I use it regularly to make sure that things are being reported correctly.
I need to check my score. It’s been a while!
I’ve been using Credit Karma for a while now. It’s a pretty great tool.
This would be such an easy way to keep track of your credit. It is so important to monitor your credit rating. The app would make it so easy.
It sounds like it’s a really helpful service. I’ll have to consider this for sure!
I like Credit Karma. It’s interesting to check out your credit score and something everyone should know.
It is very important to monitor your credit (and your credit card statements each month too). We recently had a duplicate charge on a big ticket item… it’s in dispute. 6-8 weeks. -_- We’d have not noticed though if we just paid a payment and didn’t pay attention.
Definitely having control over your credit is important! Good to know that Credit Karma is out there
