Walmart Fico

What does Walmart Fico mean?

[BGinVA]

When you get a Walmart credit card, either the store card or the Discover and sign up for online billing, they give you a free monthly FICO score from Transunion.  I think others have reported it as being TU08, which is not a very popular one with lenders.  Someone correct me if that is wrong.

Some very special memebers on this forum that own a Walmart card or Walmart Discover who are enrolled in paperless statements have access to a Fico score. It is refered as a Walmart Fico becuase it uses a newer version of Fico Scoring known as a TU08. The score is based off of ones TU report.

Oh, ok.. Thanks

I thought it was refering to TU being "less desirable" than EQ. Glad I asked...
