Installment credit has an amount, interest rate, term (the length of the loan in months or years), and a fixed monthly payment. The monthly payment is split between interest and repayment of the money borrowed (principal). The payment split includes more interest at the beginning of the loan and more principal near the end. A car loan or home mortgage are common types of installment loans.
An Instal account can help you build installment credit and demonstrate to lenders your ability to consistently make on-time payments over the term of a loan. Install accounts let you pick the monthly payment, credit amount, and account term that’s right for you. On-time payments, the amount of credit, and the length of credit history are 3 key components that impact 80% of your FICO Score.
Your credit mix matters – having a diverse blend of credit accounts builds your profile. Adding a Revolv account to Instal can enhance your credit mix. Credit mix is the number and type of accounts (installment or revolving) on your credit profile and impacts 10% of your FICO Score. You should have a mix of revolving and installment accounts to optimize your profile.

As an international student, I really wish I had met CreditStrong earlier. It’s a great way to have more credit activities without loan… helped me improve my credit score in 2 months!
Great way to help a bit with credit score AND help with some savings... made good sense to help build and maintain a good score and also have some funds later on.
I signed up for CreditStrong’s services 5 months ago. All that I can say is WOW!!! It really works, especially, when you’re rebuilding your credit.
Awesome way to actually build your credit score without going through the hassle of a credit card. Highly recommend CreditStrong to anyone looking to improve their credit score while saving some money along the way.
Your credit profile and your associated credit score are uniquely you. How quickly your credit profile improves and the impact on the score will vary, but the best thing you can do is make on-time payments and keep building your profile.
Occasionally, adding a new line of credit to your credit profile will cause a slight temporary dip in your credit score because it may reduce the overall age of your credit history. In this case, it’s typical for your credit score to quickly rebound and increase with on-time payment history for the CreditStrong account loan.
You may cancel or close your CreditStrong account at any time with no prepayment or early termination fee. Please note that any payments received more than 30 days late will be reported as ‘late’ to the credit bureaus.
When canceling or closing your account you should be aware that payment history is the most important factor for your FICO credit score and by closing your account early you will reduce the number of payments reported to the credit bureaus, potentially reducing the positive impact of the CreditStrong Account loan on your credit score.
