Use your Nigerian credit history to apply for U.S. credit cards and more
We’ve partnered withNigeria CRC to locate and translate your Nigerian file into a U.S.-equivalent score that Nova Credit's partners can use to evaluate your application for the following products:
Rent an apartment
Renting an apartment without a U.S. credit score can be hard, and often requires an increased deposit. We work with a number of tenant screening platforms to help you use your credit from another country. Ask your landlord if they use Yardi, Intellirent, or First Advantage to evaluate your rental application. Questions? Send us an email at help@novacredit.com.

International students often can’t finance their degrees through banks. Use your international credit to apply for a loan for your U.S. studies with MPOWER Financing.
