Claim:

The UK’s #1 Credit Score and Report App

Summary

ClearScore’s claim to be the UK’s #1 Credit Score and Report App is based on an analysis using estimates from mobile and digital benchmarking company Data.ai (formerly App Annie). The analysis uses data from 2023 which assesses the average monthly active users against the other credit score and report apps in the UK.

The UK’s #1 Credit Score and Report App

ClearScore has identified the main competitors in the UK Credit Score and Report App industry, and has completed an analysis using estimates from Data.ai.

Whilst the data used to substantiate the claim is based on estimates, the difference in monthly active users is so significant that the above claim can be substantiated using this data.
