About Deposify
Deposify's aim is to bring trust to the landlord and tenant relationship. By using Deposify, landlords and tenants trust an independent third party to hold the deposit on their behalf. Deposify then lets landlords and tenants manage how and when the deposit is paid. If a dispute arises, Deposify has the tools for landlords and tenants to try and resolve disputes between themselves quickly, and if needed one of their independent adjudicators can resolve.
