TECH CRUNCH – Luke Bailey has relaunched Score, the dating app centered on financial compatibility. The original version required a minimum credit score of 675 and attracted ~50K users before being shut down. The new version adds two tiers: a free tier open to anyone, and a verified tier where users consent to identity and credit verification via Equifax (soft check, no credit impact). Verified users unlock features like seeing who saved their profile, messaging before matching, video intros, and nearby discovery. Bailey argues credit scores signal reliability rather than wealth. The app plans global expansion starting with Canada.
