Turn Your Rent Into Credit-Building Power
Your rent is probably your largest monthly expense. Credit Blooms makes sure those on-time payments count toward building your credit score.
How Rent Reporting Works
A simple, automated process that builds your credit every month.
1. Connect Your Rent
Sign up and provide your rental information. We'll reach out to your landlord or property manager to verify your monthly rent payments.
2. We Verify Payments
Your landlord confirms your on-time rent payments each month. This verification is what allows us to report to the credit bureaus.
3. Reports Sent to Bureaus
Credit Blooms submits your rent payment history to Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion monthly — building your credit with every on-time payment.
4. Track Your Progress
Members often see improvements after positive payment history begins reporting. Your personalized dashboard helps you monitor every milestone along the way. Reporting timelines vary by bureau and individual credit profile.
We Report to All Three Major Credit Bureaus
Maximum impact on your credit profile by reporting everywhere that matters.
