Understanding Your Credit Score 

A credit score is a three-digit number that represents creditworthiness. It is calculated based on several factors: 

 

  • Payment History (35%): Consistently paying bills on time is the most important factor. 

  • Credit Utilization (30%): The percentage of available credit being used. 

  • Length of Credit History (15%): Older accounts help build trust with lenders. 

  • Credit Mix (10%): A variety of credit types, such as credit cards, auto loans, and mortgages, can strengthen a score. 

  • New Credit (10%): Opening too many accounts in a short time can lower a score. 

 

Understanding these components helps identify areas for improvement and guides better financial decisions.

 

Credit Utilization: Keeping Balances Low

Credit utilization is the ratio of credit card balances to credit limits. For example, if the total credit limit is $10,000 and the balance is $3,000, the utilization rate is 30%. 

  • Aim to keep utilization below 30% for a healthy score. 
  • For optimal results, staying under 10% can provide a stronger boost. 
  • Paying balances before the statement closing date can reduce reported utilization.
