Released | 01.11.2024 System Release Notes | GUIDs on fully signed ASTs Release Overview: Expanding on our previous feature to apply GUIDs to fully signed tenancy agreements, we are shortly to implement GUIDs to all documents sent to tenants when preparing a let or renewal, enhancing document tracking and evidencing which documents tenants have received. Key Features: 1. What is a GUID? | A GUID is a ‘Globally Unique Identifier’, and we’ve now assigned one to each of the documents you send to your tenants, such as the How to Rent guide, gas safety certificate and the EPC. 2. Proof of Issue | The GUIDs will be displayed within the PDF proof of issue when you send documents when creating the tenancy on BOX, and for documents sent with the tenancy agreement the GUIDs will be displayed in a new Tenancy Documents appendix coming soon – watch this space!

Released | 18.10.2024 System Release Notes | Open Banking Enriched Data Release Overview: We are introducing a new feature that will allow us to support increased open banking adoption from tenants. While our Open Banking checks continue to lead the industry, with an impressive 80% of tenants providing consent via BOX, a small number of eligible tenants still choose not to consent. Open Banking is a government-backed initiative that allows tenants to securely share their financial records directly from their online bank account. This process enhances transparency and gives tenants full control over their data while significantly speeding up the referencing process by using accurate, verified financial information. Importantly, it helps reduce fraud by ensuring that the data used is true and unaltered. We look forward to continuing to streamline your tenant referencing process with these enhancements! Key Features: 1. Non-Consent Analysis | We’ve introduced a new feature that analyses reasons for non-consent, helping us identify and address any concerns tenants may have on open banking. This feature aims to further increase the consent rate, and we appreciate your support in communicating the benefits of Open Banking to your tenants. 2. New “How To” Video | To help tenants understand the Open Banking process and its benefits, we’ve created a new instructional video. Feel free to share this resource with your tenants to make the process even smoother. Talk To Us Today!
