Where a 600 score sits

A 600 FICO is often described as fair credit. It usually means some past late payments, high card balances, or a short credit history. For many banks it falls under their comfort zone. For us, it sits comfortably inside the range we consider, since FICO 500+ is reviewed.

How funders read a 600

The score itself is just a summary. What sits behind it often matters more:

A 600 score with strong deposits can look quite different from a 600 score with thin ones. More on this at our credit score requirements page.

What a 600 score can affect

Credit is one input into the amount, payment structure and product you are offered. It is not reviewed alone. Your offer will show the full repayment amount and the schedule before you accept, so you can compare it clearly against anything else on your desk. For product options at this range, see the best business loans for a 600 credit score.

Two files, same score

For illustration: two owners each have a 600 FICO. The first has high card balances but has never missed a payment, and deposits have been steady. The second has a recent charge-off and a business account that dips negative often. The score is identical, but the first file gives a funder much more to work with. That is why we always look at what sits behind the number, not only the number itself.

If you are near 600 and climbing, mention it. The direction of your credit is part of the story.

Applying won't ding you

We start with a soft credit pull. That lets you see your options without a new hard inquiry knocking points off a score you are trying to build. The application takes about five minutes and you will need about three months of business bank statements. No tax returns. Start here.
