How Credit Reporting Works
Payment History
Your payment history is a record of on-time, late and missed payments on past and
current credit accounts. These accounts can include credit cards, lines of credit, personal
loans and mortgages. Your payment history indicates to a potential lender the likelihood
of you successfully repaying your debt — or going into default.
The "Length of credit history" category of FICO® makes up about 15% of
your credit score. The average age of accounts = the total months of all of the accounts
on your credit report (from the open dates to the present), divided by the
number of accounts. While 15% of your score doesn't sound like much, especially
when compared to the "payment history" and "amounts owed," a longer credit history could help your credit score.
Information about your credit cards, loan accounts and credit inquiries is
reported electronically through TransUnion, Equifax, and Experian by lenders and creditors
about every 30 days.
