What Is an Excellent Credit Score?
An “excellent” credit score varies depending on the scoring model you use. Both FICO and VantageScore – the two most popular scoring models – have slightly different calculations for what is a good score and what they consider excellent. The FICO scoring model is the most popular credit scoring model with banks. The FICO scoring range is from 350 to 850, with anything over 800 considered “excellent.”
VantageScore, like FICO, also measures the creditworthiness and reliability of potential applicants. While less popular than FICO, VantageScore is the creation of the three major credit bureaus: Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. The VantageScore model ranges from 300 to 850, with scores over 781 deemed “excellent.”
What Are the Benefits of Having Excellent Credit?
Having great credit can open a lot of financial doors. Goor or excellent credit scores provides you with a greater selection of options, more rewards, and more. Here are a few of the benefits of having excellent credit:
① Lower interest rates | Good and excellent credit means the best interest rates on credit cards and other loans. The average APR for someone with excellent credit is around 4% lower than the rate for those with good credit and approximately 12% lower than an applicant with fair credit. You may also qualify for lower balance transfer fees or no foreign transaction fees. |
② Rewards | Since an excellent credit means the best card offers, it also means better rewards. Rewards come in the form of cash back, points, or miles and vary in value depending on the issuer. Before applying for your next credit card, always read the terms and conditions of the rewards program to see how you earn points (the rewards rate) – and how you redeem them. |
③ Credit limits | Have a Prime of super Prime credit score can help get you approved for higher credit limits than counterparts with average or bad credit. The same is true for other credit products, including auto loans, mortgages, and personal loans. |
④ Welcome bonuses | Many credit cards for good or excellent credit offer welcome bonuses, which means new cardholders earn extra rewards, such as cash back, points or miles, when they use their card to meet spending or other requirements. |
⑤ Perks | The very best credit cards (and charge cards) come with the very best perks. Most of the top luxury credit cards offer travel benefits that far exceed their annual fees. These perks include hotel upgrades, dedicated concierge, lounge access, Global Entry or TSA statement credits, and more. |
As noted, excellent credit typically means a great interest rate on your loans and credit cards. Lenders view applicants with excellent credit scores as less risky borrowers, meaning a high credit score means lower APR, lower monthly payments, and less money spent on interest over the life of the loan.
How much money can you save with a Prime, or super-Prime, credit score? Here are the average APRs for credit cards based on credit profile:
Score | APR |
Excellent Credit | 14.49% |
Good Credit | 18.99% |
Average Credit | 24.24% |
Bad Credit | 29.74% |
No Credit | 27% |
How to Get an Excellent Credit Score
Getting the best credit scores requires patience and hard work. An excellent credit score doesn’t happen overnight. Instead, it takes years of good financial habits. The easiest way to build an excellent credit score is to follow these three simple steps:
① Check and review your credit reports | Ⓐ Check your credit reports from all three of the nationwide consumer reporting agencies: Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. |
Ⓑ Check for negative credit information, like potential fraud or ID theft, accounts in collection, or unpaid balances. | |
② Pay your bills on time | Ⓐ Automatic payments are a great way to avoid accidentally missing a payment. |
Ⓑ Splitting monthly payments into two smaller payments can help stretch budgets while ensuring you pay on time. | |
③ Keep credit use low | Ⓐ Credit utilization accounts for roughly 30% of your credit score, so aim to keep credit use as low as possible. |
Ⓑ Consider a balance transfer credit card if your credit use is creeping up and you want to consolidate that debt into one new account, typically at 0% Intro APR. | |
④ Limit new applications | Limit any new credit applications to only what is essential (i.e. if applying for a balance transfer credit card). |
⑤ Keep old accounts open | Don’t close any old, unused accounts. Closing accounts can lower your average credit utilization. |
Of the information above, paying your bills on time is the most critical. Payment history is the most important factor in determining your credit score, making up over a third of your FICO Score. Try setting up bi-weekly payments so you can keep your credit use low.
Your credit utilization is how much credit you’re using compared to the amount you have available. Always try yo aim to keep your credit utilization below 30% of your available credit limit, though if you want to reach excellent credit it is better to aim for 10% overall credit use – or less.
