CreditLadder

FCA approved CreditLadder is the UK's first and biggest rent recognition platform that enables renters to add their rent payments to their credit history. Tenants have their rent payments read by CreditLadder using Open Banking enabled APIs. This allows the tenant to have their rental payment track record added to their credit file, and ultimately help improve their credit history. CreditLadder works with leading credit reference agency Experian and since launch has reported over £70 million in rent. Recently, the company was announced as a final stage winner of both the HM Treasury's Rent Recognition Challenge and became one of 20 companies chosen from nearly 100 applicants to join the HM Treasury-supported Tech Nation programme. CEO Sheraz Dar has worked at and invested in many of the UK's leading digital businesses including; PrimeLocation, Quidco and OpenRent, the latter being the UK's biggest letting agent by volume.
