Credit, taught by the numbers.

Most people learn credit by making mistakes with it. CreditMaxer exists so you can learn it first.

The app connects to your cards and loans, read-only, and turns them into one calendar: statement close dates, due dates, utilization on every card, and the windows when a limit-increase request is likely to land. From those numbers it builds a plan, then explains each step so you can decide whether to follow it. A simulator lets you rehearse a payoff or a new card before you commit, and an assistant answers questions with your actual figures.

The public side of the site needs no account. The Card Hub takes your estimated spend by category and ranks 1,709 cards by what they return after the annual fee. The credit-union directory lists the 20 largest U.S. credit unions by assets and shows which ones you can join.

Your judgment, not ours

Every recommendation explains itself. You make the moves. Nothing in CreditMaxer pays a bill, opens an account, or submits an application for you.

Read-only, always

Bank connections run through Plaid and can only read balances and dates. Your bank login is entered with Plaid, never with us.

Consent is a switch

Score entry, account aggregation, and AI features are separate opt-ins. Turn any of them off whenever you like and the rest of the app keeps working.

Math instead of marketing

Cards are ranked by what they return on your spend, lenders by what you would pay. Whether an institution pays us is not an input to either.

Education, not repair

We do not dispute items, pull reports, or promise a score. We teach the system and show you your own numbers inside it.

CreditMaxer is free. Today no institution in the Card Hub or the Loan Hub pays us: every link goes straight to the institution’s own site. If we add links that can earn us a commission, they will be marked Sponsored where they appear.

Compensation will never change how anything is ranked or whether it appears. The full rules are in our Advertiser disclosure.

CreditMaxer is made by CreditMaxer LLC, a small team in the United States. We write the coaching logic, verify every rate in our comparison tables against the lender’s own published information, and read the support inbox ourselves. The date next to a rate is the date one of us last checked it.
