Trigger leads are a marketing tool used by lenders, credit card companies, and insurance providers to identify potential customers who are actively seeking credit. Here’s a closer look at how they work and what you can do to manage them.

Opting out can help reduce the number of unsolicited offers you receive, but it won’t stop all marketing communications. For example, you may still receive offers from companies you already do business with or from other sources not covered by the opt-out service.

By understanding how they work and taking steps to manage them, you can reduce the number of unsolicited offers you receive and maintain better control over your personal information.
