What is credit mix and why does it matter?

Credit mix is the variety of credit account types on your report, including revolving credit (credit cards), installment loans (car loans, mortgages), and open accounts (charge cards). It's 10% of your FICO score. Having multiple types shows lenders you can manage different kinds of credit responsibly.

How many types of credit do I need?

There's no magic number, but having at least 2 to 3 different types is considered good. For example, one credit card plus one installment loan (like a credit builder loan or auto loan) gives you a basic mix. You don't need to have every type of credit to score well.

Should I take out a loan just to improve my credit mix?

Generally no. Don't take on debt you don't need just for credit mix points. But if you only have credit cards, a credit builder loan (which is designed specifically for this purpose) is a smart low-risk option. The interest is minimal and the credit benefit can be worth it.
