Company Overview
Launched in 2011, Credit Sesame is the first of its kind in the category of Personal Credit Management (PCM). With a mission to “empower people to take charge of their credit and loans to achieve their financial goals, this revolutionary platform provides data and analytics driven end-to- end credit management”. The mobile and web offering not only gives consumers access to credit scores and reports & identity-theft monitoring but also highly personalized targeted advice on better lending options. With outstanding metrics – 80% of the business from existing members, 12% attrition, 4 years of 100% CAGR, CAC of 6 months, and 45% MAU’s, this personalized, simplified and automated service is the future of credit management.
“While many companies have spent the last few years catching up to our free credit score offerings for consumers, Credit Sesame has been developing and proving robo-advisor technology,” said Adrian Nazari, founder and CEO of Credit Sesame. “This technology translates consumer financial and credit information into simple and actionable steps that consumers can easily understand and utilize to improve their financial profile and leverage their credit. As a result, 45% of our members are engaged monthly, helping us achieve an unprecedented relationship and engagement with our members.”
Having raised over $80 million from top tier investors including SF Capital, Menlo Ventures, Inventus Capital Partners, IA Capital Group, Globespan Capital Partners, Symantec, and FTP, this Series D+, profitable company with offices in downtown Mountain View and San Francisco, is poised to own the $100B credit market.
