Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about rent payment platforms UAE

How does Rently work as a rent payment platform in the UAE?

Rently operates as a Rent Now, Pay Later service for UAE tenants. Instead of paying your full annual rent in one or a few large cheques, Rently pays the landlord the complete annual rent upfront on your behalf. You then repay Rently over 12 monthly payments that include a transparent service fee. This means your landlord receives the certainty of full upfront payment while you manage your housing costs month by month.

Does Rently pay my landlord the full annual rent upfront?

Yes. Rently pays your landlord the full annual rent directly, using the number of cheques outlined in your lease agreement. Your landlord receives the complete amount they expect, whether that is one cheque or several, on the agreed date. This makes Rently compatible with the standard UAE rental market, where landlords typically require annual payment, while giving you the flexibility of monthly repayment.

How is the Rently service fee calculated?

The service fee is personalized to your application and is not a flat rate applied to everyone. It is calculated based on factors reviewed during your application, such as your financial profile and your landlord's preferred payment method. Before you commit to anything, Rently provides an estimated monthly cost through an online calculator on the website, so you can see the full picture upfront with no surprises.

Can Rently also cover my security deposit?

Yes, covering the security deposit is an optional add-on available within the same application. If you choose this option, Rently pays the security deposit directly to your landlord alongside the annual rent. The deposit amount is then spread across your monthly payments. At the end of your tenancy, your landlord returns the full security deposit to you directly, in line with standard UAE lease terms.

Is Rently available for any rental property across the UAE?

Rently works with any residential rental property across the UAE, regardless of which real estate agent, listing platform, or individual landlord you are dealing with. You are not required to find your apartment through a specific portal or agency to use the service. Rently is currently available in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, and Ras Al Khaimah, making it accessible to tenants across a wide range of UAE emirates.
