If you pay rent for your home or apartment, you can actually improve your credit score every time you pay your rent using Kikoff. This feature allows us to report your rent bill to the credit bureaus as an additional tradeline, helping boost your credit score when you pay your rent on time! If your rent is late, it won’t be reported—so you don’t need to worry about negative marks from this service!
To get started, tap Rent Reporting in the Kikoff app, link your bank account, and you will be all set!
Please note: Rent Reporting only accepts linked checking or savings bank account connected via Plaid. Additionally, rent reporting only includes rent: it does not include mortgages, home ownership payments, etc.
