When you sign up for a NerdWallet account, you’ll have the opportunity to get your TransUnion VantageScore 3.0 credit score for free.

Your credit score isn’t the only information you’ll receive

Because your NerdWallet account also provides access to your credit report, you’ll see your credit history, the factors that impact your credit score, and details about the accounts affecting your credit score. You’ll also have access to a Credit Simulator, which uses your current credit score to estimate how hypothetical actions may impact it.

• There are different types of credit scores. NerdWallet currently offers the VantageScore from TransUnion, but you might have seen your FICO score somewhere else. They both use roughly the same information, but the scoring models are different – which means the scores could be, too.
