Piñata comes in and helps them get credit for the rent they’re paying. Piñata reports rental payments to the bureaus and offers rewards so renters can shop or save.
Lily and I discuss some of the misconceptions about renters, the credit scoring system, her time politics, the psychology behind rewards for renters, raising capital, surfing, and a whole lot more.
