Step 1

Create a membership

To get started you’ll need to set up your member account here. It’s completely free.

Use your online account to protect the deposit with us within 30 days of receiving it from the tenant.

Give the tenant proof of the protection (this is called the prescribed information) within the same 30 calendar days of receiving the deposit.

Now that you have transferred and protected your tenant’s deposit with us, you are fully compliant. You can do all of this instantly in your online member account.

Evidence

You need to provide evidence to support your deductions. This could include a tenancy agreement, inventory report, photographs and any other documents.

All the evidence is compiled and sent to an independent, qualified adjudicator to make a binding decision. We will notify you of the decision, explain the reasons and transfer the awarded amount.
