Credit Pulse + Salesforce: Real-Time Credit Intelligence

Discover how Credit Pulse integrates with Salesforce to deliver real-time insights directly to your CRM.

Why Bring Credit Intelligence into Salesforce?

Sales teams live in Salesforce. Credit teams… usually don’t. That disconnect costs companies time, money, and missed opportunities.

Every new customer or deal forces finance to scramble between bureaus, PDFs, and back-and-forth emails. Meanwhile, sales is waiting for an answer: Can we extend credit? How much? Can we move faster?

Credit Pulse solves this by embedding real-time credit risk intelligence directly into Salesforce so sales and credit can finally operate in sync.

What the Integration Delivers

Real-Time Credit Intelligence

  • Bring customer fields in to complete your master data set
  • Connect important fields to help with decisions and monitoring
  • Share predictive insights, including our Pulse Score, Health Score, and Payment Score
  • Or, keep it high-level with stoplight red, yellow, and green signals

Connected Onboarding Flow

  • Trigger credit applications from your CRM when opportunities meet thresholds
  • Seamless application management with decisioning in Credit Pulse
  • Push decisions, timestamps and terms back to Sales instantly

Seamless Sync

  • Map critical fields (scores, credit flags, recommendations) into Salesforce objects
  • Align account-level and opportunity-level credit data
  • Configure visibility controls so the right teams see the right information

Speed & Automation

  • Credit application data links directly to the Salesforce account
  • Fraud checks and trade references run automatically
  • Decisioning logic (rules, thresholds) can be built directly in Salesforce

Benefits for Sales, Credit, and Finance

For Sales: Faster deal velocity, fewer bottlenecks. No chasing finance for days.

For Credit: Centralized view of customer health without manually chasing references or juggling multiple tools.

For Finance Leadership: Earlier risk detection, fewer write-offs, and consistent decisioning across the organization.


How It Works in Practice

  1. A prospect applies via the Credit Pulse digital application.
  2. Credit Pulse runs fraud checks, scores the customer, and recommends a credit limit.
  3. That information is synced into Salesforce in near real time.
  4. Sales sees whether the deal is good to go or flagged for review.
  5. Credit can still override, but the workflow runs without manual lag.

Result? Credit decisions in hours, not weeks.

Why It Matters

The old way: Credit was reactive. Buried in paper apps, bureau PDFs, and endless references.
The new way: Credit is proactive. Driving revenue forward by spotting risk early and enabling faster approvals on strong accounts.

Salesforce is where revenue lives. Credit Pulse makes sure credit intelligence lives there too.

Visibility controls allow you to decide who sees scores, limits, or fraud signals.

Q: Can we build custom credit rules in Salesforce?
Yes—your team can configure rules (e.g., auto-approve under $25k, flag if Pulse Score < 50).
