Whether you’ve found your next property or have only just started looking, you can move in sooner with Canopy. Once you’re settled, our digital tools can help bring down the cost of your monthly bills, too.
Canopy makes renting easier, faster and fairer for everyone, with
not one magic wand in sight.
Nice change of pace and far more efficient than the usual back and forth with an estate agent. Verification of ID and rent and credit all in one place. The support team were quick to verify manual uploads and everything was verified within 2 days!
Makes me feel like I’m not completely wasting my money on rent by building my credit score so I can buy a house in future! Also amazing that I don’t have to pay a deposit - helped me and my partner go on holiday last year!
I have been renting for 8 years now and did not know that I could improve my Experian credit score by simply tracking my monthly rent!! Love this feature from Canopy
Nothing! There’s no cost to you whatsoever.
For letting agents and landlords, our Open Banking and Experian digital referencing checks are also completely free. It’s only our Employment and Landlord references that come at a cost (£5 plus VAT per reference). But as far as you - the tenant - are concerned, Canopy is totally free to use.
You know you’re a reliable renter. But every time you move, you’re forced to go through endless rounds of form-filling just to prove what you already know. With a RentPassportTM, you can say goodbye to endless paperwork and hello to fast, form-free referencing – as well as a load of helpful financial wellness products. That’s what we call a win-win.
The usual kind of stuff – your name, date of birth and address(es) – will enable us to find your credit history. To verify your income, we’ll also need access to your bank details, which you can share manually or via Open Banking (which is secure and tends to be much quicker).
When you’re renting a new property, the letting agent and/or landlord will always ask to see information about your credit and income. Having a RentPassportTM simply makes this process easier. Plus you can unshare your passport at any time, so you’re always in control.
In a word, ethically. We will never use your data for personal gain or sell it to other companies. Rest assured, we only use your data in order to help us design the best financial wellness products for renters. However, if your data does get used for any other purpose, we’ll notify you in the app. For a full explanation of exactly how we use customer data, see our privacy policy.
