  • Proof of residence — utility bill, lease agreement, or mail with your address
  • Personal references — typically 3-4 contacts with phone numbers

How It Works

  1. 1 Browse in store — choose from available furniture, appliances, electronics, and more
  2. 2 Apply — no traditional credit check at most stores; approval is based on income and residency
  3. 3 Get approved — many stores offer same-day approval and immediate access to your items
  4. 4 Delivery or pickup — most stores include free delivery, setup, and ongoing service/maintenance

Typically included with rent-to-own agreements:

Free delivery and setup, service and maintenance for the life of the agreement, the option to return items at any time without penalty, and an early purchase option (EPO) to buy the item outright before the lease ends. Rent-to-own is not a loan or credit purchase. Specific terms vary by store.

I signed up online with Rent-A-Center two weeks ago and uploaded every document they requested. I never received a single call or follow-up. The Black Friday “special” turned out to be a complete lie—when I finally called the store, they didn’t even have the product I ordered. The customer service was honestly the worst I’ve ever experienced. The employees had nasty attitudes whenever I asked simple questions, and they repeatedly asked me for the same documents I had already uploaded on day one. No communication, no accountability, and they talk to you like they’re doing you a favor. Save yourself the stress and go somewhere else. This location desperately needs new management, because this is unacceptable. It’s a shame it be your own people.

The manager is very rude. They schedule your delivery date then the day of after waiting all that time they canceled and say no one answered.
