    Results

    Set the five factors, then press Calculate. Defaults sit in the typical range.

    This is not a credit check, not a bureau score, not a 300-850 style number, not a National Credit Act disclosure, and not financial, legal, or debt-review advice. Speak to an NCR-registered counsellor before you make decisions.

    How the illustration works

    Equal illustration points

    Each factor can add 0, 1, or 2 points. The total is 0 to 10. These are not bureau weights.

    Relative bands

    0 to 3 is weaker. 4 to 6 is mixed. 7 to 10 is stronger. There is no 300-850 or 0-999 score here.

    What this is not

    It is not a credit check, not a bureau product, and not the financial health score.

    Common questions

    Is this a credit check?

    No. Nothing is sent to a credit bureau. You are moving educational toggles on this page.

    Why is there no 300 to 850 number?

    Bureau-style ranges are easy to mistake for a real score. This page uses 0-10 illustration points and a relative band.

    Is this the financial health score?

    No. That page uses money figures. This one uses five credit-style factors only.

    Can I get my real credit report here?

    Use the TransUnion link above to request your free annual report directly from the credit bureau. DRC does not receive the information you enter there.
