\nFulfilling financial obligations by paying bills on time and in full each month shows lenders you have the ability to manage credit.<\/p>\n
\nYounger consumers looking to bolster their credit history can take several key steps. For starters, check with your landlord to report monthly rent payments to the three major credit bureaus. Additionally, leverage a low-interest card when making smaller purchases like a coffee and danish at Starbucks or by paying your dry-cleaning bill, then be sure to pay the credit card bill on time. To creditors and lenders, a crystal-clear history of on-time payments shows responsible borrowing habits and should boost a credit score.<\/p>\n
