Frequently Asked Questions
Welcome to your quick-reference guide. We’ve broken down everything letting agents need to know about partnering with DepositPass, boosting your business, and staying fully compliant under the new Renters’ Rights Act.
1. The Basics of DepositPass for Agents
Working with DepositPass saves you time, attracts tenants, protects landlords, and gives you a competitive edge in the marketplace. Properties offering a deposit-free option are highly appealing to tenants, while landlords appreciate the robust financial protection. Plus, as a DepositPass partner agent, you earn a commission for every successful introduction.
Yes, significantly. Because DepositPass is an alternative to a traditional cash deposit, you do not need to register funds with a government-backed deposit scheme, nor do you have to serve statutory “Prescribed Information” within the strict 30-day window. This drastically reduces your team’s admin time and entirely removes the risk of your agency facing severe compliance fines for deposit registration errors.
DepositPass provides landlords with cover against financial loss or damage, including unpaid rent or property damage for which the tenant is liable under the tenancy agreement (up to the agreed limit, remaining strictly compliant with the statutory 5-week or 6-week deposit caps).
Yes! In cases where tenants haven’t paid landlords for proven charges at the end of the tenancy, the assigned amount from the tenant’s (or a third party’s) savings account or life insurance policy can be securely drawn upon by the landlord.
No. To comply with the Tenant Fees Act, tenants must always be offered the free choice between a traditional cash deposit and a DepositPass. However, many agents find that when presented clearly, our cashless solution is a highly popular choice for tenants.
2. Properties, Tenancies & RRA Compliance
DepositPass covers any property, from residential to commercial.
All new and converted rolling Assured Periodic Tenancies under the Renters’ Rights Act, as well as HMOs and Lodger agreements.
There are two ways our terms can be added: by inserting our standard clauses directly into your contract or by using a side letter (addendum). Alternatively, you can simply download our free, fully Renters’ Rights Act-compliant Assured Periodic Tenancy template from here!
Any tenant who owns an assignable (chargeable) savings account or life insurance savings plan (policy)—or can provide one from a 3rd party like parents, a spouse, relatives, or friends.
3. Fees, Commission & Onboarding
It is completely free for agents and landlords. The tenant pays a one-off fee for the DepositPass service.
Our Partner Agents earn a generous commission for every introduction that leads to a DepositPass purchase. Commissions scale with the deposit size:
Amount of Tenant’s Deposit | Letting Agent Commission
|
|---|---|
£0 to £500 | £50 |
> £500 to £1,000 | £60 |
> £1,000 to £2,000 | £70 |
> £2,000 to £4,000 | £80 |
> £4,000 to £7,000 | £90 |
> £7,000 to £10,000 | £100 |
Simply visit the Agent section of our website and click “Get Started.” Once you submit your partnership enquiry, our team will be in touch as soon as possible.
Our onboarding process is quick and easy. We just need:

Note: We conduct standard background checks which you will need to agree to during onboarding.
This is a simple written agreement outlining the rules of what an Introducer can and cannot do. We will walk you through exactly how this works during your onboarding training.
If you wish to book training for your team, please contact us at info@depositpass.com.
4. End of Tenancy & Disputes
As with any other tenancy, you need to arrange an independent check-out inventory and discuss any outstanding issues with the landlord and tenant. You also need to notify DepositPass that the rolling tenancy has ended.
If there are no deductions, the security assignment is simply released. If there is a disagreement over deductions, the dispute is handed over to our independent Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) partner, MyDeposits, for a fair, evidence-based outcome.
It costs nothing. There are no cancellation fees when a tenancy ends.
A Quick Note on the 2026 Renters’ Rights Act: As letting agents know, the MyDeposits ADR service strictly resolves financial and deposit disputes at move-out. For general property complaints during the tenancy, you and your landlords must now refer to the legally mandated Private Rented Sector Landlord Ombudsman.
