Bright Builder helps you build payment history that may positively improve your credit score. Credit score increases are not guaranteed, and individual results may vary. Late payments, missed payments, or defaults on your accounts with us or others will negatively impact your credit score. Products and services are subject to state residency and regulatory requirements. Bright Builder is not available in all states.

2. Bright reports customer rent history to TransUnion, one of the major credit bureaus. Please note that credit score improvement is not guaranteed, and individual outcomes may vary. Late payments, missed payments, or other defaults on accounts with Bright or other creditors may negatively impact your credit score.
