DUBLIN, Calif. –Patelco Credit Union teamed up with United Way’s SparkPoint to bring its ScoreUp Credit Builder Loan to the center’s clients.
Patelco said its credit builder loan has helped more than a thousand people establish and improve their credit scores.
The ScoreUp Credit Builder Loan is a great additional tool for SparkPoint financial coaches to leverage when working with families to help them build their credit, increase their savings and reduce their debt.
Patelco’s member development and retail teams also work together to offer financial services and serve as backup financial coaches to SparkPoint families.
“Throughout our year-long partnership, the team has helped SparkPoint financial coaches understand how ScoreUp can benefit the families they help,” said Darrin Mink, vice president of virtual delivery and membership development at Patelco Credit Union. “ScoreUp is a great tool to help establish and build credit. We want as many members as possible to benefit from the program, and this partnership gives more people access to it.”
