What are business credit scores?

Business credit scores include the D&B PAYDEX (0-100, measures payment promptness), Experian Business Intelliscore (0-100), and Equifax Business Credit Score. Unlike personal credit, business scores are publicly accessible by vendors and lenders. A PAYDEX of 80+ is considered good — it means you pay on or before due dates. Building business credit requires opening trade lines in your business name and paying promptly.
