Acre rebrands to Score following ClearScore acquisition

Intermediary platform, Acre, has announced a new name and brand identity. Now known as Score, following its acquisition by ClearScore earlier this year, the mortgage CRM’s rebrand marks the next step in Acre's evolution and accelerates ClearScore’s expansion into mortgages.

Acre aims to make it easier for brokers and networks to grow their businesses, enabling people to buy homes quicker and more efficiently.

Under the new Score brand, the business will accelerate its technology roadmap, including new AI-powered features, integrating with ClearScore Home Lending. This will allow Score to bring technology enriched with ClearScore’s proprietary data and insights to mortgage and protection businesses faster, driving more leads into the ecosystem.

Justus Brown, founder and managing director of Acre, commented: “This is an exciting time for our business and for our users as well. The backing of the ClearScore Group means we can draw on its financial firepower, AI expertise and huge UK consumer base to accelerate our roadmap. While our users will see no change to the day-to-day in the service they receive, by bringing our brand in line with the wider ClearScore Group reflects our shared mission to simplify the mortgage journey for everyone and power change in consumers’ financial lives."

Brian Cole, chief financial officer at The ClearScore Group, said: “Score is an exceptional business that brokers across the country use to service hundreds of thousands of people in preparing and selecting their mortgage. It now integrates with ClearScore Home Lending and sits alongside our other B2B platform, D•One, in powering borrowing and home lending for millions of people. As the Group accelerates its expansion into mortgages, we are building a suite of technology platforms powered by user-permissioned data that offer best-in-class service to borrowers, lenders and brokers.”
