Credit Score (Serasa): Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how Serasa score tracking works and how it affects your ability to rent equipment or secure credit in Brazil.
This service provides a numerical score that represents your creditworthiness to lenders, banks, and various service providers.
Who it's for
This service is available to all adults. Because it is based on individual credit history, anyone meeting the age requirement can access their information to see how they appear to potential lenders.
What you get
You receive ongoing tracking of your credit score. This numerical value is a key tool used by businesses to assess your financial reliability. By monitoring this score, you can see how you are positioned when applying for financial products or services. Specifically, this score is used by companies to determine if they should grant you loans or allow you to rent items on credit.
What it costs you
Monitoring your score and accessing your information through the provided platform is free. You do not need to pay a fee to see your current credit status or track your financial standing.
The catch to know
While the monitoring is free, your score is a vital factor for specific financial activities. For example, having a high score is often essential if you need to rent equipment on credit. If your score is low, you may find it difficult to secure the equipment or the credit lines you need for your personal or professional activities.
