FICO^® Score Open Access for Credit and Financial Counseling

FICO^® Score Open Access for Credit and Financial Counseling is a valuable program that enables credit and financial counseling providers in the US to share FICO^® Scores already purchased — for example, for the purpose of providing financial counseling and/or financial educational services — with their customers for free and with no additional score fees or program fees from FICO. Fast and easy to use, the program was designed specifically for credit and financial counselors to increase consumer understanding of FICO^® Scores and their importance in everyday financial decisions. Knowledge about FICO^® Scores may support a customers’ progress and commitment to more responsible financial health management, and reinforce behavior changes that last long after counseling sessions end. Additionally, making FICO^® Scores available for free to customers as part of the program may help with customer retention by encouraging customers to stay on their financial management plans.
