Footprint Joins the Bilt Neighborhood to Connect Identity Verification With the Resident Experience Through Bilt Neighborhood OS

Bilt Neighborhood OS will give housing operators the option to integrate with Footprint’s identity verification and fraud prevention technology, helping applicants verify their identities and property teams review potential risks

NEW YORK — Nov. 10, 2026 — Footprint, an agentic operating system for risk and compliance, today announced a partnership with Bilt, the neighborhood commerce and rewards platform, to connect identity verification with Bilt Neighborhood OS™. The partnership will bring verification into the same experience residents use to manage life at home, helping housing operators verify applicants and identify potential fraud.

Bilt Neighborhood OS is an AI platform that helps businesses grow by reaching new customers and building loyalty through personalized experiences in their neighborhood. It integrates with the systems properties already use to bring property services, payments, rewards and Neighborhood Benefits™ into one connected resident experience. Through that unified layer, Bilt’s AI agents execute tasks on behalf of residents and operators across the property and Bilt’s neighborhood network of 50,000+ merchant partners, including sports venues, restaurants, fitness studios, pharmacies, parking lots, retail shops and more.

The planned integration will enable prospective residents and mortgage borrowers to complete identity verification through Bilt as part of their rental or mortgage application process. Footprint’s technology supports identity checks, document tamper detection and fraud detection, giving property teams or mortgage brokers additional information to support their review of applicants.

“Bilt connects the steps involved in finding a home with everything that follows,” said Eli Wachs, CEO & Founder of Footprint. “Bringing Footprint into that experience gives operators a way to verify identities and investigate potential fraud within the rental journey, while making the process easier for applicants to complete.”

The partnership builds on Bilt’s nationwide network of more than 8 million members, with its platform powering one in four U.S. apartment buildings. Bilt has delivered more than $1 billion in value back to members, helping them cover housing payments, pay down student loans, book travel and more. Through Bilt’s monthly Rent Day®, residents can access bonus rewards and exclusive experiences, and play for the chance to have their rent covered through Rent Free™.

Built around how residents live

Bilt’s inaugural State of the Neighborhood Study, conducted with 451 Research by S&P Global, found that two-thirds of U.S. consumers do at least 80% of their everyday spending within 15 miles of home. The study also found:

• 77% of renters say rewards on housing payments would make them more likely to stay in their home long term; and

• 83% of renters say one platform for everything, from rent payments to dinner reservations, would meaningfully improve their experience.

“Applying for a home should feel connected to everything that comes next,” said Ankur Jain, Founder and CEO of Bilt. “With Footprint, we’re making identity verification part of the same experience residents use to move in, manage their homes and access benefits throughout their neighborhood.”
