About Renti Rewards

What is Renti Rewards?

Renti Rewards is New Zealand's first loyalty and benefits programme for renters. It lets you earn points on your rent and bond payments, access included contents and job cover insurance, and pay rent by card, all managed through the Renti app. The more you use the programme, the more you get back from your biggest monthly expense.

Points & Rewards

How many points do I earn?

You earn 2 Renti Rewards points per dollar on rent and bond payments. You can earn up to 4 points per dollar when you spend with our partner merchants. If you pay with an eligible Airpoints or Hotpoints credit card, you also earn those card points at the same time, giving you two reward streams from one payment.

Cards & Fees

What card/s can I use?

Any Mastercard or Visa works, debit or credit. Pay with a rewards credit card like an Airpoints or Hotpoints card and you'll stack those points on top of your Renti Rewards, two reward streams from one rent payment. Use our calculator to see exactly what you could earn.

Contents Insurance

Who underwrites the insurance?

The insurance policies included with Renti Rewards are underwritten by Zurich and Chubb, two of the world's leading insurance providers.

Rent Protection Cover

What is rent protection cover?

Rent Protection Cover is designed to help eligible members who experience involuntary loss of employment due to redundancy. For eligible claims, the policy provides a benefit to assist with rent payments, subject to the policy terms, conditions and exclusions.

Merchants & Partners

Which merchants can I earn bonus points with?

We partner with a growing range of New Zealand merchants across categories like groceries, dining, retail, and lifestyle. The full list of participating merchants is available in the Renti app.

Privacy & Data

What personal data do you collect and who do you share it with?

We collect the personal information needed to run your Renti Rewards membership, including your name, contact details, payment information, rental address, and transaction history. We share relevant data with our payment processing partners, insurance underwriters (Zurich and Chubb), and merchant partners where necessary to deliver the programme. We do not sell your data to third parties for marketing purposes. Our full privacy policy is available at renti.co/privacy.

For Property Managers

Does Renti Rewards change how I receive rent?

No. Property managers and landlords continue to receive rent exactly as they do today. Renti Rewards is a renter-facing programme: renters choose whether to join, and the programme operates on their side of the transaction. Nothing changes in your workflows, reconciliation, or disbursements.

About Renti Rewards

Is Renti Rewards open to all New Zealand renters?

Not yet. Renti Rewards is currently available to renters moving into properties managed by property managers who use Renti for viewings and applications. We're working to expand access to more renters across New Zealand soon.

Points & Rewards

Is there a minimum number of points before I can redeem?

No. You can redeem your points as soon as you earn them. There is no minimum threshold or waiting period.

Cards & Fees

Is there a processing fee?

Yes. The processing fee is 2.49% on each rent or bond payment made through Renti Rewards. This fee is how the programme is funded: it covers your points, insurance benefits, and member perks.

Contents Insurance

Can the insurance be cancelled?

No. The insurance is included as a benefit of eligible Renti Rewards membership. Cover is subject to the policy terms, conditions, exclusions and eligibility requirements. Members must maintain an active Renti Rewards membership in good standing to remain eligible for cover. Coverage also remains subject to the validity and continuation of the Group Policy.

Rent Protection Cover

How much does Rent Protection Cover provide?

If you're made redundant, eligible claims may receive a benefit of up to $2,500, covering up to one month's rent as defined in the policy. Benefits are subject to policy terms, conditions and claim assessment.

Merchants & Partners

How do I earn bonus points with partner merchants?

To earn bonus points with a partner merchant, simply pay using the same card linked to your Renti Rewards account. No vouchers, no codes: the points are applied automatically when you use your linked card.

Privacy & Data

Do you sell my data?

No. Renti does not sell your personal data to third parties.

For Property Managers

Do I need to do anything to support my renters joining?

No action is required from you. If your property management is handled through Renti, your renters will be given the option to join Renti Rewards when they move in. The programme is entirely optional for renters and transparent for property managers.

About Renti Rewards

Is Renti Rewards available as an app?

Yes. The Renti app is available on both iOS and Android. You manage your membership, track your points, pay rent, and access your insurance benefits all in one place.

Points & Rewards

Can I also earn Airpoints or Hotpoints?

Yes. One of the biggest advantages of Renti Rewards is the ability to double dip: earning Renti Rewards points and your credit card's loyalty points (such as Air New Zealand Airpoints or ANZ Hotpoints) at the same time, on the same payment. You earn whichever card points your card is enrolled in, on top of your Renti Rewards points. Use our calculator to see exactly what you could earn.

Cards & Fees

Is my payment information safe?

Yes. We partner with industry-leading payment providers to ensure your card details and personal information are protected at all times. We do not store your full card number. If you have specific questions about our security practices, reach out at support@renti.co or call 0800 468 230.

Privacy & Data

How can I access, correct, or delete my data?

Under the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020, you have the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct any inaccuracies, and in some circumstances request deletion of your data. To make a request, email us at support@renti.co with the subject line "Privacy Request" and we will respond within 20 working days.

For Property Managers

Can I prevent renters at my properties from joining?

Renti Rewards is a renter's choice: how a renter pays and what benefits they access is their decision to make. Your rent disbursements are unaffected regardless of whether a renter is a Renti Rewards member.

About Renti Rewards

Is there a processing fee?

Yes. Renti Rewards charges a 2.49% fee on rent and bond payments processed through the programme. This fee funds your rewards, insurance cover, and member benefits. An engaged member can get back up to twice the value of the fee across card points, Renti Rewards points, merchant rewards, and insurance benefits. You can check your own number before joining using the calculator on our website.
