What to do

Take one action today to improve your credit score: check your score, make a payment on time, reduce a balance, or set up a new automatic payment. Track your score monthly.

Why it works

Credit score affects loan rates, housing applications, and sometimes employment. Even a 50-point improvement can save thousands in mortgage interest. Most people have never actively worked on their score.

Research backing

Credit bureau data summarized by Experian shows that consumers who actively monitor and manage their credit, through on-time payments and balance reduction, achieve meaningfully larger score improvements over 12 months than those who do not track their score at all.
