When housing payments don't count toward financial history

I've been paying rent with money orders for three years because my landlord doesn't accept cash, but it costs me $20 extra every month and builds no payment history.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The largest regular payment most people make remains invisible to the systems that judge their creditworthiness.
