Palenca raises $4M to make millions of Mexicans' income visible for lenders

Palenca, a Mexican income verification platform for financial institutions, has raised $4 million in a Series A round led by Experian, with participation from Foundation Capital, Gilgamesh Ventures and Dhow Ventures. The company addresses a critical gap in Mexico's financial inclusion: the lack of reliable income data prevents credit expansion to new segments. Without verifiable income information, financial institutions must either limit their reach or assume greater risk. Palenca's platform validates income from various sources, including informal employment, to integrate them into credit and risk decisions. The funding will develop new data products, expand income source validation and strengthen predictive models using artificial intelligence. The company processed nearly 5 million verifications in 2025 and projects reaching 20 million this year, enabling banks to extend credit to previously excluded populations.

Experian adds VantageScore 4.0 to rental screening API to help more tenants qualify for housing

Experian has enhanced its Connect API platform to offer VantageScore 4.0 for rental screening, enabling property managers, landlords and screening providers to use the modern credit scoring model when evaluating prospective renters. Zillow is amongst the platforms now using VantageScore 4.0 through the platform. The enhancement follows the Federal Housing Finance Agency's recent approval of VantageScore 4.0 for mortgage decisions, creating greater consistency across the housing journey. VantageScore 4.0 combines trended credit data with machine learning and can score approximately 33 million consumers who may have been unscoreable under older models. The model uses trended credit data, rental payment history and alternative data to reflect consumers' financial behaviours across 24 months, offering greater accuracy and more inclusive scoring for renters with thin credit files.
