Array Credit Pull
Integrate Array’s Product API for full credit reports and Pingtree’s soft-pull Credit API for validating credit data without score impact.
Overview
Pingtree offers two types of credit integrations to help you enrich your lead data and improve qualification precision:
- Array Product API — Full credit report integration inside the Funnel Builder.
- Soft-Pull Credit API — Lightweight credit validation for lead qualification, without impacting the credit score.
Both options provide flexibility in targeting, compliance, and monetization strategy.
🔐 Compliance & Security
- All credit data access requires explicit user consent, per FCRA standards.
- Data is encrypted in transit and at rest.
- Sensitive information is never stored unless explicitly configured.

🔍 Purpose of Integration
- Validate and segment leads using real credit data.
