About

Grain is a United States-based credit-building fintech platform — backed by Y Combinator (W20) — providing 150,000+ users with a credit-building debit card that converts everyday debit card purchases into credit-building activity reported to all three major credit bureaus (Equifax, Experian, TransUnion), enabling consumers to build or rebuild credit scores without taking on traditional credit card debt or risk. Founded in 2017, Grain serves the estimated 100+ million Americans who are credit-invisible (no credit score), thin-file (insufficient credit history), or rebuilding from past credit damage — all of whom are excluded from mainstream credit products, face higher interest rates on loans, and experience barriers to renting apartments or getting job offers where credit checks are required.
