Know your score

Your credit score gives you freedom and flexibilit­y

- Grow your score

There are many options for checking your credit score, and alongside the various services that claim to be the default there are apps that you can also use to keep up to date. Of course, you can use Safari on a Mac to check your score and it will work just as well, but there will be times when you may want the informatio­n available when you are out and about, and this is where an app on an iphone or ipad will be invaluable. This is a crucial area for getting your finances in check. If your score is not where you want it to be you can try upgrading to the full service to see your score at any time and to fully understand why you may have lost some points.

The bigger the number

When you sign up for a service you will be given a score and an indication of how good it is. A good score will give you lower interest rates and much more flexibilit­y in the future.

The best options

Most services also offer loan and credit card services so that you can compare the various options to get the very best deal for your needs. All of the features will work when mobile.

Knowledge is power

Most services offer tips and advice to ensure that you are managing your money in the best way possible. Every little bit of knowledge will help you deal with all financial areas.
