How to Check Your Credit Score with TD Banking

You use your TD Bank app to check balances or send an Interac transfer. You might not know that you can also check your credit score for free. It won’t hurt your score. It won’t alert credit bureaus like Equifax. And it takes less time than finding your debit card.

Knowing your score gives you insight before applying for a loan or opening a new credit card. It helps spot issues early and is a simple step toward better personal finance.

In this guide, you’ll learn how to check your TD credit score through the mobile app or EasyWeb, what shows up on your credit report, and why it matters.

Step-by-Step: Check Your Credit Score in the TD App

You won’t need to leave the house or call your financial institution. Using the TD Bank app, you can check your TD credit score from your phone. You get a free credit report and updates weekly. Plus, it won’t impact your score.

What You’ll Need Before You Start

  • The latest version of the TD mobile app
  • An active bank account with TD Bank
  • Your online banking login (EasyWeb or app login works)

Your score is pulled from TransUnion and is available to most Canadian users.

How to Access Your Credit Score

  1. Open the TD app on your phone: Log in using your TD credentials. You’ll land on your home screen.
  2. Tap “more” (☰) on the bottom right: This opens the main menu of your mobile banking dashboard.
  3. Scroll and select “Credit Score” under Products & Services: You’ll see the CreditView logo by TransUnion.
  4. Accept the terms and conditions: if this is your first time, you’ll need to opt in before viewing your score.
  5. View your dashboard: You’ll see your TransUnion credit score, a chart showing your score range, and your full free credit score.

If You Run Into Problems

If your score isn’t showing or you see an error, contact TransUnion directly. Their support number is 1-888-752-9182.

This isn’t the same as a lender check. Viewing your own score is a soft inquiry. It won’t show up on reports seen by lenders or affect your chances of approval.

This is a tool for credit monitoring. No fees or alerts are sent to credit bureaus like Equifax Canada or CIBC. You just get a clear view of your situation.

What You’ll See in TD’s CreditView® Dashboard

Once you’re in, the CreditView dashboard gives you a complete snapshot of your credit health.

Your Credit Score and What It Means

Right at the top, you’ll see a 3-digit score. Next is a label, like Good, Very Good, or Excellent. This is your TransUnion credit score, unlike one from Equifax or apps like Borrowell or Credit Karma.

A good credit score can help you get approved for a credit card, TD Direct Investing account, or better interest rates on a loan. Lenders look at this number before they say yes.

A Look at the Last 24 Months

Below the score is a graph showing how your credit score has changed over the past two years. You'll see it if your number has gone up or down.

This helps you track patterns, missed payments, new credit, or paying down a bank account balance. It’s your credit history in motion.

Compare Against the National Average

You’ll also see how your score compares to the Canadian average. This context helps you understand if you’re ahead, behind, or right in the middle. Know where you stand, especially if you’re in Toronto, Quebec, or any other part of Canada.

Use the Score Simulator

One of the dashboard's most helpful tools is the score simulator, which lets you test “what-if” scenarios.

What happens if you pay off a credit card? What if you open new online banking products or miss a payment?

This tool doesn’t change your score. It just shows how specific actions could affect it.

Understanding Credit Score Ranges in Canada

Your credit score lives on a scale from 300 to 900. Higher is better. But you don’t need a perfect number to be in a strong place.

Most Canadian lenders see 660 or higher as a green light. That means you’ll likely be approved for a credit card, personal loan, or line of credit. Lower scores can still qualify, but you may get a higher interest rate or need to provide extra info.

How Credit Scores Are Grouped

Here’s how credit bureaus like TransUnion and Equifax Canada generally break it down:

  • 300-559: Poor
  • 560-659: Fair
  • 660-724: Good
  • 725-759: Very Good
  • 760-900: Excellent

You’ll see these labels on platforms like CreditView, Borrowell, Credit Karma, and most mobile banking dashboards, whether you use TD, RBC, BMO, or CIBC.

What Affects Your Credit Score

Your number isn’t random. It’s based on how you manage credit over time. Here are the main pieces that shape your credit report:

  • Payment history - Do you pay your bills on time?
  • Credit utilization - How much of your limit do you use?
  • Credit age - How long have you had your accounts?
  • New credit - Have you recently applied for a new credit card or bank account?
  • Credit mix - Do you have a variety of account types?

Credit reporting agencies pull these details to build your full profile.

Why This Matters

A strong score gives you options. It can lower your TD Direct Investing loan rate and help you qualify for payday loans when needed. It gives you confidence when applying. You'll know where you stand once you check your credit score.

Need Fast Cash While Building Credit?

Knowing your credit score is smart. It helps you plan better. But sometimes, knowing the number isn’t enough, especially when you need money now.

If you’re short on rent, behind on a bill, or need to cover a sudden cost, you can apply online in minutes. You won’t need a perfect score.
