@Anonymous, You can set up monthly payments for activity $2-3 dollars is sufficient.
I would log-in every month just to check my CC's and bank accounts,
would put $1 a month or sometimes $2. some months I paid nothing.
It is really up to you? ..just wanted to give you a few idea's

I just wanted to get some advice because I was stuck on if I should do/get the NFCU SSL. I have 0/NONE opened installment loans, but I do have 3-4 CLOSED. Ficos hover around 745. have more than 5 open cc's 1 azeo. Is this option something that would benefit my situation? advice
Just as a DP, I had many paid off installment car loans (and one Harley Davidson), some in excess of 100K
When I opened a NFCU SSL of $3010.00 and paid it under 8.9% (8.5% to be more precise)
I seen on average a 35 point FICO8 Increase across all three credit bureaus.
Assuming applying for a SSL thru NFCU is an HP?
@Wavester64, I honestly don't remember? .. I am thinking not, as I don't remember the inquiry on my report.
Maybe @SouthJamaica , @Anonymous or @AllZero could answer with certainty?
There's no HP. I don't think anyone HP's for an SSL.

NFCU no HP for me this month on a SSL
SECU MD, yes HP everytime for any credit app incl. SSL
Yes, I am sure there are many that will do a HP for a SSL. Surprisingly, the pull happy folks at NFCU decided that it wasn't needed for the SSL.

If you open an NFCU SSL, and then immediately pay it down to 9% of the loan amount, it will probably give a nice boost to your FICO 8's and 9's. It will probably have little, if any, effect on the mortgage scores.

You don't have to show "activity" in my opinion, but it doesn't matter, just pay a little bit. And don't pay it too far down which might cause it to get closed out.
Me I would pay $3 or $4 each month.

No, no pull at all.
