Authorized User Tradeline Brokerage and Affiliate Program

How to Buy and Sell Tradelines to Your Clients and Grow Your Business

When someone’s credit report doesn’t have enough positive data to generate a good credit score, they often look for ways to improve it. There are many ways for people to increase their credit scores to obtain affordable loans, mortgages, better interest rates, and much more. While these methods can be utilized by anyone, one tried-and-true shortcut is the credit-building technique of employing an authorized user tradeline.

Believe it or not, people can actually borrow a link to another person's excellent credit. This process basically means that the purchaser will become a secondary card holder of the primary credit line, only without the ability to spend. One example would be asking a relative to add them as an authorized user on a credit card that has a long history and a high limit. However, for most people this isn't an option and they need to find another way to get a tradeline. But how?

Typically if someone wants to improve obtain a tradeline, they'll do research to gain insight and advice from someone who knows more than they do. Ultimately, they’re looking for someone to guide them through the process, answer questions, and even complete the process for them so they don't have to deal with the hassle. Since the latter is the most common case, there is a large demand for people who are capable and knowledable about the subject, and you (or your business) can be one of them.

Super Tradeline Broker, to the rescue! 

How to become a tradeline broker

If you’re a tradeline broker, you’re in the right place. However, if you aren't one yet but are curious or interested in becoming one, you're also in the right place. Here are the basics of the job:

1. The essential tools for this work are a positive attitude and a willingness to learn.
2. Tradeline brokerage is unique in the world of finance because there isn’t a special "broker license”. 
3. Become familiar with how credit works and understand which factors impact credit scores the most. You want to be an expert so you can make your customers happy. 
4. Partner with a reputable company to help your clients access a variety of seasoned, high-quality tradelines. 

Who operates as an authorized user tradeline broker?

Below are the types of businesses that typically offer tradelines to their clients for a fee:

Credit repair companies

Tradeline companies (like GFS) empower credit repair companies to exceed client expectations. Credit repair companies help rectify their clients' credit scores by disputing negative remarks, negotiating with credit companies, and offering debt payment plans.

But, how can credit repair companies help clients boost credit once the negative marks are gone? Authorized user tradelines significantly improve credit and the best credit repair companies know this (and offer the service as a way to help).

Loan officers

Every loan officer wants to close more contracts. They’re always on the borrower's side because their income directly depends on how many loans get approved. They want to help turn denied loan seekers into profitable borrowers, but they don't always know hot. Not all credit repair professionals know how to utilize authorized user tradelines. In fact, some don't even know they exists. Thus, loan officers are excellent candidates to act as tradeline brokers for their customers.

Mortgage Brokers

The situation with mortgage brokers is almost the same as loan officers, except they usually have less time to learn about authorized user tradelines. It takes awhile to learn the ins-and-outs, but it's a highly valuable skill to have.

Debt Management Consultants

Sometimes it's crucial to quickly recover a rogue credit score after it incurs damage due to financial difficulties, such as missed payments. Credit repair is the first step to achieving these goals; next is rebuilding the credit score. Several credit-building techniques offer stable and predictable results, and utilizing AU (authorized user) tradelines are among them.

When debt management consultants offer guidance to alleviate debt and help rebuild credit, we recommend adding "credit piggybacking" to their services as an option to obtain a quick and effective credit boost for their clients. This is essentially the temporary purchase of a credit card tradeline. We'll talk more about it below.

Business credit consultants

Many individuals seek ways to obtain small business loans, and personal credit is a crucial factor. Specialists who help people become entrepreneurs often rely on AU tradelines as a fast and powerful credit-building tool.

Is this credit-building technique lawful?

Yes. People often ask their family or friends to add them as authorized users of credit cards, and the same can be done by renting the credit line of a stranger with spotless payment history. This rental takes place through the leasing & selling of authorized user tradelines. Individuals with excellent credit histories rent out the authorized user slots on their credit card accounts. And people who are working to improve their credit can pay for these spots. It needs to be done correctly, but all-in-all, it's really quite simple.

In 1974, the US enacted the Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA), regulating banks' activities toward credit applicants. Regulation B of that law prohibits discrimination on many factors, including, for example, marital status. That means a person doesn't have to be spouses with the cardholder or even know each other personally to be an authorized user of their credit card - hence the legality and availability of using the credit of a complete stranger.

Fair Isaac Corporation (FICO) desired to exclude authorized users from credit scoring due to morals. However, FICO changed its decision because of the ECOA and canceled its application to Congress. When everyone is allowed to buy and sell tradelines, more people can access the benefits of not only achieving good credit but also having better purchasing opportunities.

How does the Affiliate Program for brokers work?

In most cases, lenders use the borrower's credit score to estimate their trustworthiness and determine whether they can qualify for a loan. As a result, borrowers reserve the best rates for borrowers with good credit, stable income, and large down payments.

If a borrower's finances aren't in order, lenders consider them risky & charge higher interest rates, costing thousands more over the life of the loan. You may have seen this firsthand if your business relates to working with customers who have bad credit and need to get approved for a loan. Whether they need a mortgage loan to buy a house, a car loan, or approval to rent a home soon, they need to improve their credit score fast.
