What percentage of your credit score is determined by your payment?

Your credit score isn't typically determined by your payments, but rather it is determined by how much you owe. The more you owe on your loans, the more you will be perceived by lenders as a higher risk borrower. With the FICO formula, the amount in which you owe using credit is 30% of your score alone.
With that being said, making a late payment will affect your score. Your score could possibly drop by as much as 100 points due to late payments, so if you feel for any reason you will not be able to make an upcoming payment on any loans, contact the lender as soon as possible, and they will generally help the situation by making arrangements for you to make a lower payment; but most lenders will tack on the other amount not being paid to the end of the loan, or they will extend the term of the loan to create lower monthly payments; but please be careful with allowing banks and or lenders to do this, as you will pay more in interest over the life of the loan!
