Overview
A decentralized, AI-powered credit layer built on holistic PayFi infrastructure—seamlessly delivered through a user-friendly consumer app.
What is Credible Finance?
Credible Finance is the decentralized credit layer for Web3, designed to unlock real-world credit for crypto users without forcing them to sell their assets. By combining staking-backed credit cards, AI-powered onchain credit scoring, and regulated financial institutions partnerships, Credible enables a new class of crypto-native financial inclusion.
In the same way that secured credit cards help users build traditional credit in the fiat world (by using a refundable cash deposit), Credible introduces the staking-backed credit card — a fixed-limit credit card where crypto deposits remain staked, enabling users to start building a new form of credit profile: the Credible Score.
Credible cards are secured by $CRED node, stablecoins, SOL, BTC, 0G, and other whitelisted crypto assets through integrations with trusted DeFi protocols and staking partners. These assets are locked or delegated, not liquidated, ensuring users continue earning yield while accessing credit.
Over time, users with strong onchain repayment behavior and usage history can unlock no-collateral credit lines from locally licensed lending institutions that partner to use Credible Score. The ultimate goal is to create a self-sovereign, AI-powered credit identity recognized across DeFi and regulated lending ecosystems.
Vision & Mission
Vision: To become the American Express of Web3, offering premium credit experiences for crypto users.
Mission: Credit inclusivity for Web3 users Make real-world credit accessible to every Web3 user through decentralized, transparent, and AI-driven systems that work globally.
Why Credible is Different
Real Credit, Not Prepaid Cards: Unlike many "crypto cards" that require upfront loading or liquidation of assets, Credible offers true credit lines.
Staking-Backed & No-Collateral Options: Begin with a staking-backed card, then graduate to no-collateral credit as your onchain reputation improves.
AI-Generated Onchain Credit Score: Our proprietary Credible Score system analyzes wallet behavior, repayment history, staking activity, and risk exposure — similar to how FICO works, but decentralized.
Regulated & Global: We operate under licenses in Canada (MSB) and partner with licensed VASPs and NBFCs in India — enabling compliant, cross-border financial services.
Problems We Solve
DeFi loans are overcollateralized: Users must lock 150%+ of what they borrow.
No real credit card exists in crypto: Most cards are disguised debit cards with no real lending.
Risky CeFi platforms: Centralized lenders often fail, lack transparency, and offer no user protection.
No universal crypto credit score: Web3 users lack a standardized, portable reputation system for borrowing.
