Does checking your own credit score reduce your score?

No it doe%26#039;s not.

When you check your own score is a soft pull and doe%26#039;s not count against you.

Only when you apply for credit through a lender and it%26#039;s a hard pull do you get dinged around 3-5 points.

The exception is when you looking for a auto or home loan then all pulls within a 14-day period only count as one. They all show on your bureau but you are only dinged for one.

Anyone who says different simply doe%26#039;s not know what they are talking about.

Yes it does, but it has to be excessive. I found this out with a Disney Card. I know, it%26#039;s an unlikely place. Disney Card checks your credit score every month to continually make sure that you still qualify for their card. If your credit score is checked too many times within a 6 month period, your score will drop. Unfortunately, I cannot tell you how much.
