Five products that matter
30-year purchase mortgage, new and used auto, HELOC, unsecured personal, and a 12-month CD — the rates members shop most.
For Credit Unions
RateAPI tracks the published rates of 3,700+ US credit unions daily — including yours — and ranks every market by true cost. Scorecards show exactly where your board sits against your in-state peers.
What a scorecard is
A scorecard takes your best published APR for each of five everyday products — a 30-year purchase mortgage, a new auto loan, a used auto loan, a HELOC, an unsecured personal loan, and a 12-month CD — and ranks each one against every in-state credit union we track. It refreshes weekly. Promotional teasers are excluded, so you are compared on the standard rate a member actually gets, and every market shown has a minimum of eight peers so the ranking means something.
Plenty of credit unions are hidden market leaders and simply don’t know it. The scorecard is often the first time a board sees, in one place, that it already has the best auto rate in the state.
30-year purchase mortgage, new and used auto, HELOC, unsecured personal, and a 12-month CD — the rates members shop most.
Every in-state credit union we track with a current rate, a minimum of eight peers per market, and promotional teasers left out.
Rankings move as the market moves, so your board is looking at where you stand now, not a snapshot from last quarter.
About the data

Your claimed dashboard
To be direct about what this is not: RateAPI is not a rate-comparison site. We sell data and software — never leads, never placement. No one can pay to appear above you, and your dashboard exists to make your data accurate and your position visible, not to sell your members’ attention.
Dashboards are rolling out to claimed profiles first. Claim yours to get early access.
What you can do with it
Your credit union already has a rate page on RateAPI that prospective members — and the AI assistants they ask — see when they compare rates. Claim it to correct or update rates, add products we missed, and unlock your dashboard: traffic to your page and insights against your in-state peers.

Everything on your scorecard is your own public, published rate information — the same rates posted on your website. We gather them from your site and re-verify them daily with page-level proof, so every number traces back to the exact page we read it from.
Yes. If anything on your scorecard looks wrong, email kam@rateapi.dev and we'll trace it to the exact page and line we read it from. If we misread it, we fix it; if the page changed, the next daily verification picks it up.
Never. RateAPI takes zero affiliate or referral revenue. No credit union can pay to move up a ranking. That independence is the whole point — it is exactly why the ranking is credible when it says you are winning.
Email kam@rateapi.dev with your credit union's name and we'll send your scorecard and refresh it weekly. Weekly scorecards are a new program, so getting on the list early means you help shape it.
No. RateAPI is rate data infrastructure. The public profile pages exist so every number we publish is verifiable, but the business sells data and software — never leads, never placement, zero affiliate revenue. There is no way to pay for position, which is exactly why the rankings are worth showing your board.
Submit the claim form with your name and a work email on your credit union's own domain — a matching domain verifies you instantly. Claiming is free for credit union staff and lets you correct or update rates, add products we missed, and take ownership of the page prospective members see. Claiming never changes your ranking, only the accuracy of your data.
