surfaced semanticallyFintech Credit Builder Products Enrolled Without Clear Loan Term Disclosure
Credit builder loan products are marketed with language suggesting short-term cash advances but enroll consumers in longer-term loan agreements with material terms buried in fine print or not disclosed at enrollment.
