ABOUT TRIGO
Addressing the renter gap
Housing is typically the single largest expenditure in peoples’ lives. And, therefore, one of the best indicators of ability-to-payback a loan. But underwriters currently do not have access to this rental and housing data at scale.
Very few landlords report on-time rent payments to the major credit bureaus, and less than 3% of FICO credit profiles include any active rent data. We believe this is an injustice, particularly for the 60 million Americans with “thin” or non-existent credit files and the 70% of renters living paycheck to paycheck.
Renters deserve the same access to credit as their homeowning peers, and we proudly help the millions of Americans build their credit profiles with this game-changing data source.
OUR MISSION
Improving financial outcomes for everyone
At Trigo, we’re on a mission to improve credit outcomes and democratize financial products for the under-banked. We believe we can tangibly improve financial outcomes, flexibility, and affordability for millions of Americans with more accessible and transparent housing data.
ESG
Leveling the playing field
Renters deserve the same access to credit as their home-owning peers. Mortgage payments count towards credit but rent payments rarely do. By helping renters access and unlock the power of their own data, we proudly help millions of Americans build their credit profiles with this game-changing data source.
