💳 What Is an AU Tradeline?
An Authorized User (AU) tradeline is when you’re added to someone else’s existing credit card account. You don’t have to use the card or even have access to it — but the account’s payment history, age, and limit can appear on your credit report.
✅ That means if it’s a positive account, your score could see a noticeable boost.
❌ If it’s not well-managed, it could have the opposite effect — so choose carefully.
🚀 How AU Tradelines Help Your Credit
When done correctly, being added as an AU can:
- Increase your credit age, which is 15% of your score
- Improve your credit utilization, which is 30% of your score
- Add positive payment history (35% of your score)
- Help you qualify for better funding, credit cards, or approval limits
🧠 Common Misconceptions
“It’s cheating.”
Nope. It’s 100% legal and has been used for decades — even by banks and families helping their kids build credit.
“It won’t help if I have bad credit.”
Wrong again. While it won’t erase negative items, a strong AU tradeline can still improve your overall profile and help offset damage.
“You need to have a relationship with the cardholder.”
Not necessarily. That’s where trusted AU tradeline providers (like us) come in.
📈 How to Use AU Tradelines the Smart Way
- Choose high-limit, long-history cards
- Make sure they have perfect payment history
- Only stay on for the agreed time (usually 30–60 days)
- Use it as a temporary boost to qualify for your next move (funding, cards, or credit building)
