CHICAGO (Oct. 7th, 2025) — Beyond Finance’s app has been named among the top 12 Best Online Platforms for 2025 in the Finance and Money category in Newsweek’s inaugural list of America’s Best Online Platforms. This award is presented by Newsweek and Statista Inc., the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider.
Beyond Finance is the nation’s largest debt consolidation company, providing clients with a personalized approach to move beyond debt.
Other companies whose online platforms were recognized in the Finance and Money category include Fidelity, U.S. Bank, and Citi.
The America’s Best Online Platforms 2025 ranking awards the top 500 platforms that set the standard for quality and trust. The ranking took four evaluation dimensions into consideration:
- Nationwide Online Survey: Representative online survey of over 2,000 online-service users. Collection of subjective criteria (e.g. evaluation of the layout, purchase probability, etc.)
- Traffic Growth: Analysis of traffic growth (number of website visitors) of online platforms (e.g. relative, absolute growth, etc.)
- Technical Performance: Analysis of various technical metrics to evaluate the quality of online platforms (e.g. usage duration of platform visitors, bounce rate, etc.)
- Apps & Mobile Usability: Evaluation of the mobile experience based on the availability and quality of platform apps (e.g. presence in app stores, user ratings, etc.), as well as whether the platform offers an optimized display for mobile users
According to the Newsweek’s announcement, the ranking recognizes 500 online platforms across 25 industry categories, compiled from a list of over 20,000 companies vetted through an analysis of U.S. traffic and user popularity. The top platforms were then tested on 29 criteria in four dimensions: mobile usability, traffic growth, and technical performance, as well as an online survey analyzing impression, usage, and trust. Based on these results, a score out of 10 was determined for each online platform. The top 500 online platforms with the highest scores were then awarded as “America’s Best Online Platforms 2025” and listed on the Newsweek website.
“As we work hard each day to help Americans overburdened with debt, it’s great to have that confirmation that our app’s accessibility and functionality make for an easier and better client experience,” said Lou Antonelli, Chief Operating Officer at Beyond Finance.
