Used by financial institutions to help gauge credit worthiness, your FICO® Score can be one of the most influential and valuable pieces of information to shape your financial future. The FICO® Score is the best known and most widely used credit score model in the United States.
 
A FICO® Score is a number that represents your creditworthiness and is a summary of information on your credit report. This data is grouped into five categories as outlined below. The percentages reflect how important each of the categories is in determining how FICO® Scores are calculated.
