What ScreenMe is
ScreenMe is a web-based tenant-screening and background-check service for landlords and property managers. A landlord initiates a tenant credit check online, and the applicant completes the process online. Reports can include credit history, eviction records, and criminal checks, with TransUnion powering CreditLink’s renter screening. CreditLink says its tenant-screening services follow FCRA guidelines and verifies user accounts before the first screening. Most reports are generated within minutes, though extra identity or records verification can take up to 24 hours. Screening can reveal criminal history within the past seven years. CreditLink says it uses physical security and 256-bit TLS encryption, and does not share, sell, or trade personal information except to fulfill obligations to clients. The Residential Screening plan costs $45 a month, billed per user, per month; Commercial Screening costs $100 a month, billed per user, per month. CreditLink says there are no contracts or ongoing fees and customers pay as they go.
