UK: Payment technology firm flatfair has partnered with proptech company Spike Global to provide services for tenants of Apo, Ecoworld’s build-to-rent scheme.
Apo tenants will be able to sign up for flatfair’s No Deposit solution and will add referencing services from Spike Global.
Franz Doerr, chief executive of flatfair, said: “Both flatfair and Spike share the common goal – to streamline the rental experience for everyone, making it fairer and more transparent for all parties. Working together, we hope to set a new benchmark for tenants in the build-to-rent sector, ensuring the onboarding process is as simple, straightforward and efficient as possible for Apo tenants. We are also thrilled to be able to offer Apo tenants access to our No Deposit Solution, which has already saved thousands of renters across Britain more than £10 million in up-front costs.”
Jeremy Heath-Smith, chief executive of Spike Global said: “Here at Spike, we are committed to improving the community and overall rental experience. During lockdown, meaningful technology has never been more important in keeping people connected. We have worked closely with flatfair to deliver a bespoke platform designed to make the Apo tenancy journey simple from start to finish, making residents’ daily lives easier and connecting them to amenities, services and community support at the touch of a button.”
Last month, BTR operator Fizzy Living also teamed up with flatfair.
