The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is issuing refunds to consumers after Credit Karma agreed to a $3 million lawsuit settlement to resolve the claim that it misrepresented consumers as “pre-approved” or having high approval odds for lending opportunities they were later denied.

According to the FTC lawsuit, Credit Karma falsely represented consumers’ chances of being approved for credit opportunities to deceive them into applying. These applicants were allegedly denied due to their credit, resulting in wasted time and, in some cases, dropped credit scores.

Credit Karma is an Intuit company that allows consumers to see their credit profiles and provides credit recommendations.

Credit Karma agreed to a $3 million settlement to end the FTC’s claims, and the agency is now returning those funds to affected consumers.
