Question : Can paying monthly for car insurance increase credit score?
I was just wondering if I pay my monthly insurance bill if my credit score would go up?
I am trying to build my credit score after having a real bad score. I know that if you have a recurring payment it will increase the score, but does that include car insurance?
I have the money to pay my insurance for the year all at once (birthday present) but if it helps my score to pay monthly, I’ll just keep the money in my account and pay monthly.
Thanks!

it wouldn’t be reported to your credit report so it wouldn’t make a difference. I pay my home insurance monthly and they just send me the monthly bill plus an additionally monthly handling fee. If I stop paying they cancel the policy for the remainder of the year so there’s no reason to ever report anything to to the credit bureau, especially since they never pulled my credit to approve me for the insurance in the first place, has nothing to do with someone’s credit.
