Credit Insurance1 May Make Your Loan Payments When You Can’t

Life can be wonderful. But it can also get complicated when unexpected things happen. Protecting your loan payments against the unexpected such as a disability or covered life event including dismemberment could help you protect more than your finances. It could help lighten the burden for the people you care about. Insure your loan payments today so you can worry a little less about tomorrow.

There’s no way to predict an injury, illness or other unexpected life event. You can take steps to protect your family if the unforeseen happens. Credit disability and credit life insurance may help reduce or pay off your covered loan or make your monthly loan payment, up to the policy maximum, in the event of a covered life event, injury, illness or death.

You decide which payments you want to protect and the monthly premium may be added to your loan. Coverage is designed to fit your lifestyle, it is totally voluntary, and it won’t affect your loan approval. It’s simple to apply for individual or joint coverage. You can sign up for credit insurance at your loan closing, or anytime you’d like. Call GeoVista Credit Union at 912 368 2477 to find out more.

Credit Cards Are a Good Credit-Building Tool, but There Are Important Factors to Consider

  • Like any loan, it is important to pay your bill on time.  Your on-time payment history is one of the most important factors used to calculate your credit score. 
  • Qualifiers are credit history and the ability to repay
  • Track your spending
    • Credit cards can cause impulse buying

Some Tips That Could Help Your Credit Health

  • Try to keep the usage ratio between your balances and credit limits below 30%.
    • For example, if your limit is $3,000 the balance should not exceed $1,000
  • There are ways to lower your credit card usage ratio:
    • You can make more than the minimum payment
    • If you can afford it, pay the entire balance every month
    • Pay high-interest cards first
    • Request a credit limit increase to better your ratio, but don’t be tempted to spend the additional funds
  • Credit card interest rates are important if you carry a balance
    • Rates are often based on credit scores and payment history
    • You can move your balances to a card with a lower interest rate
  • Do not close a card when it is paid off, as this could have a negative impact on your score.  Just discontinue using it
