What ApplyGate Does

ApplyGate is RentAdminly's built-in tenant screening tool, powered by TransUnion. You send the applicant a link, they pay the screening fee directly, and you get a full report you can review side-by-side with other applicants — usually within minutes.

What's Included in Every Report

  • **Credit report and FICO score** (TransUnion)
  • **Criminal background check** (national + state databases)
  • **Eviction history** (national records)
  • **Identity verification**
  • **Income verification** (when the applicant connects their bank or uploads paystubs)
  • How to Run a Screening

    Step 1: Open Screening
