Why FICO?

"If you are using a paid credit score service, other than myFICO, to look at your score, it's usually not going to be worth your money. Although you are getting a credit score, it isn't your FICO score, and it may not provide you with an accurate picture of how lenders see you."

Myth: All scores are the same.

Fact: Not all credit scores are created equal! The FICO^® Score is what 90% of all lenders use when determining loans and interest rates. Although many new score calculations have come out, the FICO Score remains the most established and well-respected among lenders.

Myth: All I need is a free credit report.

Fact: A credit report is not the same as your FICO Score, which is what lenders will consider. You cannot get your FICO Score in a free credit report. Although each credit bureau is required by law to give consumers a free credit report every year, it does not contain your official FICO Score.

Myth: I don't need my FICO Score until I need a loan.

Fact: A FICO Score cannot be improved overnight. If you're planning a big purchase down the road, the sooner you start actively monitoring your FICO Score, the better. Proactively managing your credit and watching for negative factors will ensure a smooth road towards your financial goals and big purchases.
