Need to improve your score?
Errors on your credit report can negatively affect your score and ability to get a loan, rent an apartment, and even get a job. Credit Score shows you what affects your score, how you can save money, and how you can build or repair your credit. The best ways to improve are to:

- Use less than 30% of your available credit
- Monitor your credit report

Is there a fee?
No, Credit Score is entirely free, and no credit card information is required to register.
Why is BayPort offering this free service?
Credit Score is an educational program that can help you manage your credit so when it comes time to borrow for a big-ticket purchase—like buying a home, car, or paying for college—you have a clear picture of your credit health and can qualify for the lowest possible interest rate. You’ll also see offers on how you can save money on new and existing loans with BayPort.
What’s the difference between Credit Score and other credit scoring offerings?
Credit Score pulls your credit profile from TransUnion, one of the three major credit reporting bureaus, and uses VantageScore 3.0, a credit scoring model developed collaboratively by the three bureaus: Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. This model seeks to make score information more uniform between the bureaus to provide consumers a better picture of their credit health.
Will accessing Credit Score ‘ping’ my credit and potentially lower my score?
No. Checking Credit Score is a “soft inquiry,” which does not affect your credit score. Lenders use “hard inquiries” to make decisions about your credit worthiness when you apply for loans.
What if the information provided by Credit Score appears to be wrong or inaccurate?
Credit Score makes its best effort to show you the most relevant information from your credit report. If you think that some of the information is wrong or inaccurate, we encourage you to take advantage of obtaining free credit reports from AnnualCreditReport.com, and then pursuing action with each bureau individually.
Will BayPort honor my score in Credit Score for loan applications?
If your score shown in Credit Score is different than the scores we get from the credit bureaus, simply print out your score and let us know. We will review your information and determine if there is a better offer we can provide you.
