How businesses can build credit that lenders trust

Learn how lenders evaluate businesses for financing

The biggest misconception about business credit is that it works just like personal credit. However, businesses and individuals are evaluated differently by lenders and have different credit scoring models. In addition, not all business lenders report to all three of the major business credit bureaus: Equifax, Experian, Dun & Bradstreet (D&B).
