Expanding Access to International Credit Data

Nova Credit, a credit infrastructure and analytics company that enables businesses to grow responsibly by harnessing consumer credit data, is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with Entrata, a leading AI-powered operating system for the multifamily industry. This collaboration will provide property managers using the Entrata platform with seamless access to international credit data for rental applicants.

Bridging the Global Credit Gap

For necarly a decade, Nova Credit has been dedicated to expanding financial access for consumers globally. We understand that many individuals new to the United States arrive with robust credit histories from their home countries but possess minimal credit history in the U.S., creating significant barriers to securing housing. Without access to international credit data, properties may need to decline otherwise creditworthy applicants.

Solving Inefficiencies Through Innovation

This creates inefficiencies for both property managers and potential tenants, a challenge that can be effectively addressed with access to comprehensive data and sophisticated analytical tools. Through this integration, Entrata will incorporate Nova Credit's Credit Passport® product into its operating system, expanding the qualified applicant pool for its customers while enhancing financial inclusion and housing access for newcomers to the United States.

Seamless Integration for Property Managers

Entrata's property management clients will utilize Credit Passport® to evaluate rental applications from international prospects based on their established credit history from their home country, translated into a format compatible with U.S. underwriting standards. These capabilities are fully integrated within the existing Entrata platform, offering an efficient, low-risk process for managing international applications.

Expanding Our Ecosystem

We are thrilled to announce our partnership with Entrata, expanding opportunities for their customers, the 20,000+ communities they serve, and new-to-country renters. This collaboration marks an important milestone in Nova Credit's growing tenant screening ecosystem, which includes valued relationships with industry-leading platforms such as Yardi, AppFolio, SafeRent, and others.

A Shared Vision for Financial Inclusion

"We're proud of our partnership with Entrata because it represents alignment of values. Both companies believe in leveraging technology to create fair, inclusive, and seamless experiences for consumers," said Misha Esipov, CEO of Nova Credit. "This collaboration showcases the strength of our purpose-built, multi-source infrastructure for tenant screening. Together, we're making significant progress toward helping more people access the housing they deserve, faster and more efficiently."
