Why Credit.com?

You can get your free credit report from all three credit bureaus, but there’s a catch—you can typically only access it once a year, and it won’t provide your score. Credit.com, however, gives you useful insight into your credit score all year round. Not only that, but we display your updated credit score every 14 days (did we mention that already?). If you’re ready to improve your credit score, our Credit Report Card will give you a personalized action plan.

In a nutshell, it'll grade you on the five factors that play into your credit and give you a snapshot of each new late payment, current credit utilization, new and old hard credit inquiries, and how many types of each account you have.

How does Credit.com get my credit score?

OK, we’ve established that Credit.com provides your credit score and Credit Report Card completely free of charge. But how exactly do we get your credit score? It comes directly from Experian®, one of the three major credit bureaus. Not only that, but you’ll get access to your Credit Report Card. It’ll dig into the five factors that affect your credit score—payment history, debt usage, credit age, account mix, and credit inquiries—and give you a personalized action plan to help you reach your credit and financial goals.

What's my credit score?

Your credit score is used for a lot—even if you don’t know it. Sure, you need your credit score to apply for things like credit cards, loans, and mortgages. But did you know that you may need a credit score to rent an apartment? To get decent interest rates? Trust us—you don’t want to apply for any credit line before checking your score. Plus, keeping an eye on your score can help you look out for identity theft and fraud. With your credit, it’s better to be safe than sorry.

When and why does my credit score change?

Honestly, your credit score can change whenever. It depends on many things, like whether you pay your bills on time, when you pay your balances, if/when you apply for a new line of credit, and when you open or close a new account. Plus, it can take 30 to 60 days for your creditors to report your information to the credit bureaus. Because your score can really change at any time, it’s important to keep track of it.

How to read your free credit score

So, what exactly does your credit score mean? To understand your credit score, it's helpful to be familiar with the five ranges—Excellent, Good, Fair, Poor, and Very Poor.

score chart

Excellent | 781-850

Lenders view those with an excellent credit score as low risk, so you'll likely qualify for the lowest interest rates and best loan terms.

Good | 661-780

With a good credit score, you'll likely still be able to qualify for competitive interest rates.

Fair | 601-660

Lenders will likely approve you for credit, although you might not qualify for the most ideal rates.

Poor | 500-600

You may have a hard time getting approved for loans—and if you do, you might not qualify for the best interest rates.

Very Poor | 300-499

You may struggle to get approved for new credit. If your score falls in this range, look for ways to repair your credit.
