Credit Health

Discover the truth about your credit

Did you know that when you apply for credit, such as a home loan, the credit provider checks your credit history with one or more credit bureaus? Not only does your history affect your ability to secure the loan, but it will almost certainly affect the interest rate you get.

“Knowledge is power.” So said Sir Francis Baker, and with great power, come great responsibility, which is why Credit Health South Africa has developed the Credit Health Report. This report draws your information from the three major credit bureaus and tells you where you stand, as well as how to proceed with credit providers.
