Credit Authorizers, Checkers, and Clerks pay in Texas and Utah
The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Credit Authorizers, Checkers, and Clerks is $62,930 per year in Texas. It is $51,260 per year in Utah. Texas is 22.8% above Utah on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 43-4041 and the same annual wage metric. Median means the middle of each area's published wage spread. It is not one worker's pay. The larger median is not proof that one place gives a better job or a better result. It is one wage fact from one source period.
BLS lists 1,180 wage and salary jobs in Texas and 150 in Utah. Those are survey job counts, not open posts. Read pay, job scale, local share, and price level as separate facts before you make a choice.
