Eduardo, Oportun customer: When I arrived from Mexico, I didn’t have anything. I didn’t have any credit. I didn’t know where to go.

Currently, I work in a restaurant, but on my free days I sell carnitas tacos.

I think having good credit in the U.S. is indispensable. Especially for us, Latinos, because you see that anywhere you go, they always want to see your references and check your credit history. I thought this would really affect me.

But no – thanks to Oportun, they resolved everything for me very quickly and I felt very good that they gave me the opportunity to start building my credit and gave me the trust I needed to reach my goals.
