What is a Paydex score?



It is the same as a FICO score. The paydex score is invented to show the worth of your business. The score keeps an eye on the frequency of your payment to your suppliers and vendors. It also maintains the information collected by Dun and Bradstreet from such companies. The range of the paydex score is from 0 to 100. If you get a higher score, it means that your company has a good payment record. An ideal score for your business is 80 or above. This score means that you make timely payment of your business’s expenses. However, if you get more than 80 scores, then it means that your company makes early payment of its costs.

Why paydex score is important

As your credit score can influence your eligibility to apply for a loan at a suitable rate, business credit score can also impact your business’s capability to obtain credit at appropriate terms.

Besides, suppliers, insurance companies, landlords, etc. may also check your paydex score. Some of the decisions that may get affected by your paydex score consist-
