Take control of your credit score

Simply log in to online banking and click on the red “Check Your Score” button on the right or by clicking “Featured Tools” then “Credit Score” in the navigation menu on the left. If it’s the first time accessing your credit score, we’ll ask you a few first-time visitor questions to verify your identity. Next time you visit online banking, either access method will bring you to your SavvyMoney dashboard and your credit score.

On the app, click on “Featured Tools” then “Credit Score” in the left menu navigation to get started.

Yes! SavvyMoney is entirely free, and no credit card information is required to register. You can pull your updated credit score up to every 24 hours by clicking “Refresh Score” in the SavvyMoney section of online banking. An updated full credit report is available monthly.

The score provided in SavvyMoney is not the FICO® Score, but it will be close to your FICO® Score. Both scores create scoring models that use consumer credit data to generate credit scores, but they use different methods to calculate scores, which may result in slight scoring differences.

There are three major credit-reporting bureaus (Equifax, Experian, and Transunion) and two scoring models (FICO® Score or VantageScore) that determine credit scores. Financial institutions choose which bureau and scoring model to use. Over 200 factors of a credit report may be taken into account when calculating a score, and each model may weigh credit factors differently, so no scoring model is completely identical. No matter what credit bureau or credit scoring model is used, consumers fall into specific credit ranges: Excellent 781–850, Good 661-780, Fair 601-660, Unfavorable 501-600, Bad Below 500.

SavvyMoney pulls your credit profile from TransUnion and uses VantageScore 3.0, a credit scoring model developed collaboratively by the three major credit bureaus: Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. This model seeks to make score information more uniform between the three bureaus to provide consumers a better picture of their credit health.
