자주 묻는 질문

Does a balance transfer hurt your credit score?

A balance transfer temporarily drops your score 5 to 15 points due to the hard inquiry and new account. But it can significantly help your score over time by lowering your overall utilization rate, especially if you spread balances across multiple cards.

How long does a balance transfer affect your credit?

The hard inquiry impact lasts about 12 months. The new account age effect is ongoing but diminishes over time. The positive utilization impact starts immediately and grows as you pay down the balance. Most people see a net positive within 2 to 3 months.

Should I close old cards after a balance transfer?

No. Keep old cards open after transferring balances away from them. The zero-balance old card helps your utilization ratio and credit age. Closing it hurts both factors. Just use it for a small charge monthly to keep it active.
