Bridging the Gap Between Tenants and Landlords
Rently operates at the intersection of payments and property management, offering a digital platform that manages the entire rental payment flow, from collection to reconciliation. This model provides tenants with much-needed cash flow flexibility and allows them to secure homes without the burden of a large one-time payment. Simultaneously, it gives landlords predictable rental income and reduces the risk of delayed payments.
The platform is designed to reduce the administrative workload for property managers and agents by automating collections and follow-ups. Features like rental rewards programs and UAE Pass integration are also part of its offering.
Dominic Schacher, co-founder of Rently, stated, “Our model is tested, proven, and designed to scale across markets. Since establishing operations in the UAE, we have seen great progress in the past few months, and we remain committed to driving innovation, supporting tenants and delivering certainty for landlords across the region.”
Gaining Traction with Key Real Estate Partners
Following an initial rollout in Dubai, Rently is now expanding its services across the UAE. The company has secured strategic partnerships with a growing network of prominent property agencies, including White & Co, Haus & Haus, and Betterhomes. These collaborations are key to removing friction from the rental process and helping agents close deals faster.
To support its regional growth, Rently has also established a dedicated local team.
“Since launching in Dubai, we have seen strong interest from partners across the UAE, reflecting clear demand for more flexible and streamlined rental payment solutions,” added Taimur Khan, Managing Director UAE at Rently. “As we expand, our focus is on building deep relationships on the ground and delivering solutions that work for the realities of the local market.”
A Tested Model for a Digital-First Economy
Rently was founded by a team with experience across technology, payments, and finance, with active operations in both Singapore and the UAE. The platform targets a wide range of renters, from newcomers accustomed to monthly payments to long-term residents seeking better financial management tools.
Shiv Mahajan, CEO of Rently, commented, “Rent is one of the largest financial commitments people make, yet the experience around it needs to evolve further. We are focused on making renting simpler, more flexible and more rewarding, while bringing greater consistency and transparency to landlords and property managers.”
