In the past ten years we have grown rapidly, and diversified: here are ten things you might not know about ClearScore:
1. We launched in July 2015 and reached 1m users by February 2016, and 10m users by August 2019!
2. Our first overseas office was in Cape Town and we now also have offices in Sydney and Toronto, as well as London, Edinburgh and Manchester
3. We have users across four continents: in the UK, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and Canada
4. We have close to 200 partners around the world, providing credit cards, loans, car finance and other financial services products to our users. Over 70 of these partners have API integrations.
5. We don't just do credit marketplaces: our smartphone telematics app, DriveScore, can help people save money on car insurance, and now has over 600,000 users
6. In 2023, the ClearScore Group launched a B2B open banking business services unit, called D•One. The company offers partners the ability to integrate consumers’ spending data into mainstream lending. This data can be used to power smarter decisions, with more accurate data leading to better outcomes for credit applicants and for lenders. D•One can also help partners with income verification, risk insights, and affordability assessment.
7. ClearScore has over 2.8m connected open banking users. D•One uses this enriched dataset to help participating lenders expand their risk decisioning beyond a reliance on credit reference agencies alone, enabling them to lend fairly and responsibly to financially excluded segments of society at a time where living costs have been escalating rapidly. In the last 12 months, D•One’s open banking data has enabled approximately 120,000 consumers to receive an affordable loan that would otherwise have been declined.
8. In 2025, ClearScore acquired Aro Finance and moved into both secured lending broking and embedded finance
9. ClearScore has been named in the Lazard T100 Venture Growth Index, Accel Fintech 100 EMEA and the CNBC Top 200 Global Fintech
10. ClearScore is backed by some of the best investors in fintech - QED Investors, Lead Edge Capital and Invus Opportunities
