Did you know you can improve your credit score by paying off the balance each month?
You can improve your credit score by using your credit card regularly and paying it off entirely each month. Credit Bureaus view this as a responsible use of credit.
There is a catch however: if the credit card company reports your balance to the Credit Bureaus after you’ve paid it off, it may look like you did not use it at all. I recommend my clients make the payment on the credit card right before the statement is cut, and that generally helps avoid this issue. Another trick is to check your credit score every couple months to make sure it is actually improving.
