CloudsCreditRepair™ FAQ

What is a vendor account?

A vendor account is a trade credit relationship with a supplier who allows your business to purchase now and pay later, typically reporting your payment behavior to the business bureaus.

Explanation

Vendor accounts are the backbone of a business credit file. Each reporting vendor adds a trade experience that contributes to PAYDEX® and other business scores.

Not every vendor reports — businesses building credit intentionally use 'starter vendors' known to report to D&B, Experian Business, and Equifax Business.

Examples
  • Office supply vendors (net-30 terms)
  • Industrial cleaning supply accounts
  • Print and packaging suppliers
  • Uniform and gear suppliers
