Happier tenants
Better protection

Improve the tenant experience and your own protection with Zero Deposit.

Greater efficiency

Cut down on admin time and speed up the renting process by replacing traditional, time consuming cash deposits with an AI driven, simple solution.

Enhanced experience

Give tenants a greater choice by improving the affordability of your apartments through reduced upfront costs. 96% of tenants polled said they would select a Zero Deposit™ partner above the rest.

Better protected

Enjoy enhanced protection against damages and rent arrears with a six-week, insurance-backed deposit alternative, regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

Great for tenants, great for build-to-rent operators

Give your tenants the flexibility they want with Deposit+.

They can choose between a cash deposit of 5 weeks’ rent or a Zero Deposit Guarantee, just 1 week’s rent + £59.99 setup, then £17.50/year. We also offer a block model for Build to Rent, covering all tenants with no extra charge.

You’ll still receive six weeks’ rent protection, regardless of which deposit option the tenant chooses. We manage all claims, collections, and disputes, powered by AI and backed by the Tenancy Deposit Scheme (TDS).

Simple. Fast. No hidden costs.

How does it work?

Our Deposit+ process is smooth, simple and secure, making renting better for everyone. We can create a custom integration with your workflow platform or we can use our own, providing full support and training.

Quick check in

After referencing, tenants choose between a Zero Deposit Guarantee or a 5 week cash deposit. Either way, you get 6 weeks’ cover as we top up cash deposits by an extra week.

Simple check out

Our AI tool helps you quickly calculate claims based on your evidence. No claims or unpaid rent, the Guarantee ends and our job is done.

Handling damages or unpaid rent

Submit a claim and get a settlement in under 2 minutes. We flag any gaps, handle tenant comms, and escalate to TDS if needed.

Protection guaranteed

Provided by ERI Limited, licensed by the Guernsey Financial Services Commission. ERI holds strong reserves so claims are paid upfront. We recover costs from tenants later. All claims are assessed by TDS, just like with a cash deposit.

Need to make a claim?

While most tenancies end without a dispute, we’re prepared when they do. If you’d be owed money with a traditional cash deposit, you’ll get the exact same from us + extra weeks protection.

Fast payouts

Landlords are paid fast. Once a claim is finalised and we have your bank details, payment is made within 2 working days****.

Disputes sorted quickly

Not happy with the AI resolution? Our expert claims team will assess the claim and even call in TDS for support if needed.

Ensuring good conduct

Tenants remain liable for unpaid rent and damage. We recover costs directly, and non-payment may affect their credit history.
