eCredable Blog - Learn to Build Credit

Paying rent can build credit if you sign up for a service that reports your rent payments for you.

Normally paying utility bills does not build credit. But they can if you use a third-party company to report your bill payments for you.

eCredable Lift® provides consumers with the ability to report their utility accounts in their TransUnion credit report. Most utility companies do not report your positive payment history to the credit bureaus, which means you don’t get any credit for paying these accounts on time.
