Kenneth Lin, along with co-founders Ryan Graciano and Nichole Mustard, founded Credit Karma in 2007.
Credit Karma is an American multinational personal finance company, which has been a brand of Intuit since December 2020.
It is best known as a free credit and financial management platform, but its features also include monitoring of unclaimed property and a tool to both identify and dispute errors on credit reports.
In 2017, the company launched a platform to help people find unclaimed money, such as insurance payouts and refunds. The platform, called Unclaimed Money, originally started in 7 states but is now available in all 50 states.
Credit Karma has grown tremendously via numerous acquisitions, including Penny in 2018, Approved in 2019, along with the UK company Noodle in late 2019.
Credit Karma can be used in the USA and the UK for keeping track of credit scores and credit reports.
The company will also watch for credit fraud, but it doesn’t track the use of a user’s Social Security number.
Credit Karma notes that many people are choosing Buy Now Pay Later plans for just about anything and everything and it states that this is not a healthy credit habit.
Credit Karma maintains a corporate office in San Francisco, California.
