We all know that credit scores are important, and keeping them up can sometimes feel difficult. Here are some tips for improving your score quickly and easily.

• Credit utilization: The higher your credit utilization, the lower your score will be.
• Timing: Paying off your credit card balances is important, but it’s also important to make sure you pay them off before their due date.
