What factors affect my Bankuish Score?There are a series of factors that impact your Bankuish Score. Keep in mind that while your score measures your activity over a period of several years, your current activity is weighted more heavily in Bankuish Score calculations than activity from years past. The following are some of the most important factors we consider: Average monthly income trends How much money are you earning on average each month? Stable, consistent income over time helps drive your score up. Higher average monthly salary may qualify you for higher value offers. Drops in aggregate activity Inactivity in your gig platform or large fluctuations in your monthly salary may indicate future difficulty repaying loans. The Bankuish model was built for freelancers, so we understand there are natural fluctuations in activity from month to month. However, these fluctuations can add up and damage your Score. Consistency is key. Work transactions canceled by you Creditworthiness is built on trust. We want to see that you are meeting your commitments. Consistently canceling transactions may indicate difficulty fulfilling obligations. Past due payments and obligations that show up on your credit report Missed payments can really hurt your credit score. If you have some missed payments in the past, do what you can to make sure you don’t miss any more moving forward. Remember, your current activity counts for more than past activity. Adverse public records such as bankruptcies Your public record is part of your Bankuish Score calculation. Adverse records lower your score. But hard work and consistency can overcome any adverse events from the past. Remember, your current activity counts more than your past activity. Your collection history with any Bankuish banking partner On time payments demonstrate your trustworthiness and boost your Bankuish Score. Missed or late payments, on the other hand, will hurt your score.

Why do I need to connect my account data?Your Bankuish Score is determined based on several factors, including your salary and activity on your gig platform(s). Connecting your gig account allows us to access the data we need to determine your creditworthiness.
-
Why is it important to share your data with financial institutions?So that financial institutions (banks, insurance companies, among others) can verify your identity and offer you the best financial products, tailored to your needs. For the first time, all the years of hard work you have invested in your reputation will be valued and that effort will be reflected in more money for you. This is similar to submitting documents to the bank to open an account or apply for a loan. It is necessary to share this information in order to engage in any type of financial activity, as this information is required to comply with regulations, as well as to protect you and them from fraud and illegal transactions.
