You’re our first priority.
Every time.
We believe everyone should be able to make financial decisions with confidence. And while our site doesn’t feature every company or financial product available on the market, we’re proud that the guidance we offer, the information we provide and the tools we create are objective, independent, straightforward — and free.
So how do we make money? Our partners compensate us. This may influence which products we review and write about (and where those products appear on the site), but it in no way affects our recommendations or advice, which are grounded in thousands of hours of research. Our partners cannot pay us to guarantee favorable reviews of their products or services. Here is a list of our partners.

However, this does not influence our evaluations. Our opinions are our own. Here is a list of our partners and here's how we make money.

A business credit score helps lenders assess the financial risk of working with your business.
Better scores can lead to better terms on products like business loans or business insurance.
Creditors get business credit scores from multiple reporting agencies — and each bureau has multiple scores.
Compared to personal credit scores, there are fewer ways to get your business score for free.
Business owners should stay on top of their scores to ensure all information is as accurate as possible.
