Boost your credit score by maintaining the amount of credit you have:
Don’t open accounts to improve your score, but don’t close unused cards either. Apply for and open new credit accounts only as needed. Don’t open accounts just to have a better credit mix. It probably won’t improve your credit score. Pay off debt rather than moving it around. Don’t close unused cards as a short-term strategy to improve your credit score. Owing the same amount but having fewer open accounts may lower your credit score.
