PAYDEX® Score is D&B’s unique dollar-weighted numerical indicator of
how a firm paid its bills over the past year, based on trade experiences
reported to D&B by various vendors.
There are many BIG differences from a business PAYDEX credit score
and an individual FICO credit score.
Consumer FICO credit scores range from 350 to 850. The PAYDEX
Score ranges from 0 to 100. 100 is the highest score you can get.
Having a PAYDEX business score of 80 or higher is very good. It means
Individual credit scores are calculated based on a number of factors.
The PAYDEX score is calculated based on only one single factor,
