What is a credit score?

Credit Score is only available to UK-based customers.


Your credit score is TransUnion's assessment of your credit history, based on their own calculations. It gives you an idea of how a lender might view your credit history when you apply for credit.


Lenders each use their own scoring criteria, so the score you see in Emma is a guide rather than a guarantee of any lending decision.


Your credit report and score are provided by TransUnion and are for guidance only. Emma does not provide financial advice.
