Credisys is on a mission to address inequality in credit. Credisys empowers renters to build financial credibility and unlock access to credit by transforming rental payments into recognized credit history.
Credisys is for those who rent, plain and simple. Most users of our service are students, first time renters and newcomers to Canada.
"As an international student, I could not fully access formal financial services because I did not have Canadian credit history. Now, I am on a mission to help underserved and underbanked Canadians get the credit we deserve."
Mission: To enable millions of underserved and underbanked Canadians to access credit because they deserve it. Credisys' mission, inspiration and social impact come from the fact that we are a team of Canadian newcomers with a passion for financial inclusion.
My daughter and I started Credisys because of my own personal experience as a new immigrant to Canada. As I settled in as an international student, I was struck by the lack of financial options available to me to improve my family's livelihood, particularly via credit. The Canadian financial system has not quite figured out how to serve recent immigrants. One opens a savings and chequing account and gets a debit card. Thus, many transactions are done via debit card or cash. Because you do not have formal Canadian credit history, you do not have access to a credit card which by itself hugely limits the type of financial services you can access. Consequently, we built Credisys to address the headache of not being able to access credit due to lack of Canadian credit history and therefore being financially invisible because of not having Canadian credit scores.
