More for Families

Our family plan helps you better protect your loved ones, with each adult getting their own, personalized account. And, we offer more features that help protect minors than any other provider.

  • Child Credit Lock

    Activate a Child Credit Lock for your minor child to help better protect against credit fraud in your child’s name by creating an Equifax credit report for your child, then locking it to prevent access to it by potential lenders and creditors. 

  • Child Credit Monitoring

    Scans the Equifax credit database for a child’s Social Security number and alerts you if a credit file potentially exists or is created under your child’s identity. Available in select plans.

  • Social Account Monitoring

    Notifies you of potential cyberbullying or reputation-damaging information directed at you or your family on social media (Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube).
