Submit TransUnion consumer credit file updates faster than using traditional tape or cartridge-based processing methods with our convenient Electronic Data Transmission (EDT) solution. EDT is a free, Web-based delivery process that can increase your data security, improve your reporting flexibility and increase your speed.
Reduce your dependence on costly, labour-intensive physical media. Instead of bulk-shipping sensitive or proprietary information through the mail or other land-based delivery methods, EDT allows you to submit compressed batch files electronically and directly to TransUnion right from your desktop.
Our advanced systems can accept a range of file formats and sizes, and most batch updates can be fully processed within 72 hours of receipt. You'll be able to increase reporting frequency at a true cost advantage and eliminate the risk of lost physical shipments, late deliveries and media damage.
