Credit Education

Learn how credit really works — and how to protect and improve your score.

How Your Credit Score Is Calculated

Your credit score is a number that lenders use to evaluate how risky it is to extend credit.
Most scoring models weigh five core factors:

  • Payment History – 35%: On-time vs. late payments.
  • Credit Utilization – 30%: Your balances relative to your limits.
  • Length of Credit History – 15%: Average age of your accounts.
  • New Credit – 10%: Recent inquiries and new accounts.
  • Credit Mix – 10%: Revolving (cards) & installment (loans).

We’ll explain how each piece works and show practical steps to strengthen your profile.
