The CreditUp by 5Star credit builder is a savings and credit-building program. This credit builder combines a secured customer installment loan and savings account, which builds both credit history and a savings account. Save money every month in your CreditUp account while at the same time building a solid credit history. CreditUp is not a conventional cash loan program where you borrow the funds upfront. With a credit-building account, you make fixed monthly payments into a savings loan account in your name and then get access to the full loan amount at the end of the loan term.
