Your FICO® Score is calculated based on five factors: payment history, amount owed, length of credit history, new credit, and credit mix. PCU makes it easy to stay informed.
If you are curious about credit scores and what qualifies as good credit versus bad credit, you are not alone! Credit score has a big impact on your life, from whether or not you are approved for loans or mortgages to the rate and terms you receive.
