Main factors

Payment history, credit utilization, age of accounts, credit mix, and recent inquiries are common factors.

Paying on time, keeping balances low, and avoiding unnecessary new debt can support a healthier score.

Late payments, high balances, charge-offs, and collections can damage your score.

Building credit is usually a gradual process, but steady good habits can help over time.
