Which credit bureau is most important


There's no most important credit bureau. Reviewing reports from all three bureaus can help you understand what information might be used to calculate your credit scores. But remember, lenders have their own criteria to decide on things like loan and credit applications.

Which credit bureau is most accurate?

Although Experian is the largest credit bureau in the U.S., TransUnion and Equifax are widely considered to be just as accurate and important. When it comes to credit scores, however, there is a clear winner: FICO® Score is used in 90% of lending decisions.

Is TransUnion or Equifax more important?

It's important to know that while each credit agency, or bureau, creates its own proprietary report, no single agency is more important than another. You may already be familiar with the three big consumer credit bureaus — Equifax, Experian and TransUnion.

Is TransUnion or Experian better?

If you simply want more control over your credit report and credit score, Experian offers the most bang for your buck in terms of personal credit monitoring and identity protection. However, TransUnion offers the most business-related products.
