My credit application at Nubank was denied. What do I do?

We are always improving our consumer studies and credit approval criteria. That means your analysis may change over time. Therefore, we recommend you apply again after three months. It's important to wait until this minimum period is over, okay? Before that, it is highly likely that our answer will be the same.

How is credit analysis done at Nubank?

Step 1

Using your name and Individual Taxpayers' Registry number (CPF), we collect several data available in the market that help us understand your consumer profile.

Step 2

With these data, our system automatically creates an internal score and classifies customers into different groups:

Group 1

This group has access to the credit card and the Nubank account.

Group 2

This group has access to the Nubank account and a card with the debit function.

Group 3

At that moment, this group doesn't have access to the credit card or to the Nubank account.

Nubank's internal score creation is based on a very long list of data. So, if your application is not approved now, that doesn't mean you have "credit restrictions".


How can I apply for another credit analysis?
