The Authority on Financial Legitimacy
Four scores. Four tiers. One number that tells you if a financial company deserves your money. This is how AAFHQ becomes the national standard for trust.
Clarity Score
How clearly a company discloses rates, terms, and total cost — measured on their listing, pricing pages, and disclosures.
Transparency Score
Hidden fees, fine print games, and disclosure quality. The fewer surprises, the higher the score.
Customer Care Score
How complaints are handled, how fast support responds, and whether customers get answers or runarounds.
Verification Level
Scan depth from 1 to 4: license → state registration → compliance → full legitimacy scan.
The Badge Tiers
Verified fundamentals — license and registration on record, scan passed.
Consistent transparency and clean disclosures across the listing.
