Why it works

The rent you already pay may help improve your FICO® credit score. On-time payments reported month after month, building a record that counts.

Late payments never reported

Stake only reports on-time payments. A late month is never sent to the bureaus by Stake.

All three bureaus

Every on-time payment reaches all three major credit bureaus. Not one. All three.

Built for real life

Scores can dip in the early weeks as your new tradeline is established. Steady on-time payments are what build the record.

Included with Unlimited at no cost. No enrollment fee, no monthly fee.

Does Stake run a credit check to enroll me?
