About Grow Publishers

Grow Publishers enables any website to monetize its traffic while bolstering customer loyalty by integrating the Grow Publisher Widget with little to no technical skills. 

Website publishers are remunerated with an affiliate fee for each user signing up for a Grow membership through the widget. 

Performance By the numbers 

• The release comes as Grow Data Science teams produce some additional figures revealing that consumers signing up for Grow free memberships with scores under 600 on average experienced a 53pts credit score boost within a year, 71pts in 2 years, and 82pts in 3 years.

• 28%* of Grow Credit users reach prime status in just 12 months, offering banks and Fintechs an inclusive financial product opportunity, further showcasing the value of consumers leveraging Grow in their credit-building arsenal.

A value proposition for all budgets & Credit Score Factor Impact 

• With Grow, consumers can boost credit on all three credit bureaus with their favorite subscriptions, and we are particularly proud of our $1/mo student plan, which comes with a $17 deposit refunded after 12 months of on-time consecutive payments.

• The $17 refund incentivizes consumers to make their payments on time, which affects 35% of the credit factors. Grow, overall, impacts 80% of the score factor, including the utilization ratio (30%) and the average history length (15%)
