The major difference between a soft inquiry vs. hard inquiry pertaining to credit is that one negatively affects your credit, while the other is harmless. A hard credit inquiry will lower your overall credit score. This type of credit inquiry, also known as a “hard pull”, is obtained when you make a request to a financial institution for the purpose of securing credit or loans. If you make too many requests for credit within a short period of time, credit reporting agencies view this as a red flag indicating that you may be experiencing some sort of financial crisis. A soft credit inquiry is obtained when a company pulls your credit - primarily to decide whether or not to offer you credit, or to monitor your current credit status. This type of inquiry, also known as a “soft pull”, does not lower your credit score because the request did not originate from you for the purpose of securing credit.
