Its CEO was Todd Albery.[3]
Overview and history
Quizzle, founded in 2008,[4] was privately held and owned by Dan Gilbert. Headquartered in Detroit, it was part of a “family” of companies that includes the Cleveland Cavaliers, Fathead, and Quicken Loans.[citation needed]
As of April 2015, Quizzle was owned and operated by Bankrate, Inc.
In early 2016, Quizzle began using TransUnion as a replacement for Equifax, and VantageScore 3.0 for CE credit score.[citation needed]
In 2019, Quizzle was shut down and web site visitors are now directed to the site of its former owner Bankrate.
