Your VantageScore® and FICO® scores are calculated based on five components included in your credit report:
- Payment history
- Credit utilization/usage
- Length of credit history
- New credit
- Credit mix
Keep in mind, each credit scoring model weighs these factors differently. Read our article What Factors Affect My Credit Score? for a full breakdown on how these models affect your credit score.
