A budgeting app that builds credit.

Credit and budgeting in one app (build credit with daily autopay)

  • Link your bank, spend what you have, and let Daily Autopay pay purchases every day so you start each day at $0 owed.

  • Build credit with on-time payments reported to Experian and TransUnion—no interest, no late fees, and no credit check to apply.

  • Budget in-app with real-time tracking, AI‑aided alerts, Smart Limits, and student‑focused rewards.

Turn everyday budgeting into credit-building

Fizz pairs Daily Autopay and Smart Limits with in‑app budgeting, so students and young adults spend what they have, avoid debt, and build a real credit history as they go. See how it works and why it’s safer than traditional credit cards. How the Fizz card works, Daily Autopay.

How Fizz makes budgeting automatic

  • Daily Autopay: Purchases are automatically paid from your linked bank account each day. You start tomorrow at $0 owed, which simplifies cashflow and keeps reported balances low. Does Autopay help credit score?

  • Smart Limits: Your available spend adjusts to your bank balance, so you can’t spend more than you have. No interest, no late fees. How the Fizz card works

  • Real‑time spend tracking: Category views, weekly insights, and custom alerts help you stay on plan. Membership

  • Student‑focused rewards: Earn points in student‑relevant categories and at campus‑popular merchants; members can get multipliers on a selected category. Rewards Policy

Credit building, by design

  • Reported to credit bureaus: Fizz reports payment history on your revolving line of credit to Experian and TransUnion. Positive and negative activity (including late/missed payments) is reported. Fizz does not guarantee score increases. Build credit, Resources › Credit scores

  • Grace before derogatory reporting: If a daily payment is missed, your card locks (SafeFreeze) and you have time to catch up before negative reporting. Avoid late payments

  • No credit check to apply: Applying for Fizz does not trigger a hard or soft inquiry. Checking credit ≠ hurt score

Budgeting features that reinforce on‑time payments

  • AI‑aided budgets and alerts to match spend with income cycles. Membership

  • Weekly category selection to focus rewards where you already spend. Rewards Policy

  • Education built‑in: short lessons on utilization, APR, and credit mix. What is APR, Credit utilization

Why “daily zeroing” works

Daily zeroing = ending each day with $0 owed on your card. This gives you an accurate cash picture, reduces the chance of missed payments, and helps keep reported balances low versus traditional monthly‑statement habits. Why Fizz makes budgeting easier
