Thirty percent of your score, and the fastest part to move.

Under 30% is the usual advice; under 10% is where the best scores sit.

Overall utilisation

26%

$2,270 of $8,800

Main card is at 62%.A single maxed card hurts even when the overall figure looks fine.

The timing trick: utilisation is reported on your statement date, not your due date. Pay it down before the statement closes and the low number is what gets reported — even if you used the card all month.

What you type here is saved automatically — on this device, and to your account if you have one.
