EDGE (www.edgescore.com) is a B2B fintech on a mission to expand credit access for consumers historically unserved and underserved by the reports and scores of traditional credit bureaus. We’re doing this with risk analytics based on complementary alternative data that reveals a more complete financial picture.
Founded in 2021, Edge is part of a larger family of fintech brands that sits underneath our parent company, NinjaHoldings (www.ninjaholding.com). NinjaHoldings’ brands also include CreditNinja, a nationwide online consumer lending business established in 2017, and NinjaCard, a neobanking platform focused on consumers in the emerging credit space.
The EDGE business is at an inflection point where we’ve proven our platform’s value with early adopters and we’re ready to go full-throttle into our target markets. Elevating every aspect of our marketing efforts is a critical element in this planned ramp-up.
