Prospective tenant says they have zumper?

I am screening tenants for my first rental property and have an application form created (all the typical questions) and was planning to use Smartmove for a credit & background check. A prospective tenant emailed me saying they have Zumper which pulls credit, eviction, background history and a Zumper application. My question is are these just general forms? I don't have any experience with Zumper.  Should I still have them apply for the background and credit checks through Smartmove and fill out my specific rental application form?

@Amanda Parry - I always run credit/background checks through my system. The applicant is welcome to submit whatever information beyond what I require for consideration.  I also require them to use my application.

This is company policy with no exceptions.
