Credit Score

How Your Credit Profile Influences A Loan Decision

Repayment history, utilisation, enquiries and the age of your credit accounts shape how lenders read your application.

What goes into a credit profile

Credit bureaus build a profile from your repayment history, outstanding balances, credit utilisation, the mix of secured and unsecured credit, and how frequently you apply for new credit.

We do not issue official credit scores. Bureau reports should be obtained directly from an authorised source.

Habits that usually help

Paying every instalment on or before the due date, keeping revolving utilisation comfortably below your limit, and avoiding a cluster of applications in a short window are the practices most commonly associated with a healthier profile.
