Esusu Launches myEsusu: A Personal Credit-Building Membership Empowering Renters to Unlock Financial Health
The Launch Marks Esusu’s Entry into Individual Financial Health Subscriptions
NEW YORK, Dec. 03, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Esusu, the leading fintech platform leveraging rental data to bridge the racial wealth gap, today announced the launch of myEsusu, a direct-to-consumer credit-building membership. Designed to remove financial barriers, myEsusu empowers renters by providing access to wealth-building opportunities and tools to take control of their financial futures.
The myEsusu membership offers renters a suite of benefits, including:
- Credit Hub: Tools to view, understand, and take control of credit information.
- Rent Reporting: Services to establish and build credit history.
- Financial Resources: Access to free tools to save money and achieve financial goals.
- Curated Offers: Vetted offers from mission-aligned financial companies.
In the U.S., over 45 million people lack credit scores or have insufficient credit profiles, limiting access to financial products including mortgages, education loans, and auto financing. This issue disproportionately affects immigrants, minorities, and low-to-moderate-income Americans.
Since 2018, Esusu has been driven by a powerful mission: to tackle credit inequity and open doors to opportunity for millions of renters. Along the way, Esusu has created nearly 200,000 new credit scores, unlocked nearly $50 billion in new credit tradelines, and made over $30 billion in mortgages possible. On average, renters using Esusu see their credit scores rise by 45 points during enrollment—proof that when we level the playing field, we don’t just change scores, we change lives.
“This moment marks a bold stride forward in our mandate to facilitate financial freedom and break down the barriers of systemic inequity,” said Wemimo Abbey and Samir Goel, Esusu’s co-CEOs and co-founders. “At Esusu, we believe that financial inclusion is not just a goal—it’s a promise to uplift communities, transform lives, and unlock the untapped potential within millions of renters across this country. With myEsusu, we are rewriting the narrative on financial inequity, equipping everyday people with the tools they need to build credit, create wealth, and own their financial futures. This is more than a product launch; it’s the next chapter in a shared journey toward a fairer, more equitable society. Most importantly, we’re just getting started.”
Until now, Esusu’s platform was exclusively available to renters in the Esusu Community Network, a network of 250,000+ participating properties across the U.S. With myEsusu, renters outside this network can now access the most affordable and robust credit-building membership on the market.
