You must purchase a report credit prior to running a report. The cost per report ranges from $20 to $30 depending on the quantity of reports purchased. Purchased reports NEVER expire and are only used when a tenant accepts your request and a report is generated.

  • After credit request is submitted, the tenant will receive an email to approve or decline this request. To generate a report, the tenant must complete the steps in the email and answer the identity authentication correctly. If the tenant fails to complete the process, a TransUnion phone support number is provided.

Step 4: View Report Online
