Security Feature – Bank Account Verification
In recent years, the digital landscape has witnessed a surge in cybercrime, ranging from hacks to scams and fraud. The exponential growth of digital technology, coupled with the widespread adoption of online financial transactions, has created ample opportunities for cybercriminals to exploit both individuals and businesses. In the face of these challenges, ensuring robust digital security measures has become more crucial than ever.
To address the escalating threat of digital crimes, we are excited to announce the integration of a new security feature into Rental Rewards: Bank Account Verification. This innovative feature is designed to fortify our platform against potential threats, safeguarding both our business and our valued customers.
But how exactly does Bank Account Verification work?
When a new bank account is added to Rental Rewards—whether during setup or subsequently—a nominal deposit of 1 cent, along with a unique verification code (e.g., V-XXXXXX), is initiated into the designated bank account. To confirm ownership of the bank account, the account holder simply needs to enter this unique code into the Rental Rewards portal. Once verified, the bank account becomes authorized for transactions within the platform.
Now, you might be wondering, what actions do you need to take?
The beauty of this security enhancement is its seamless integration. No action is required on your part to activate this feature. It automatically applies to every new bank account added to Rental Rewards moving forward, ensuring comprehensive protection without any additional effort on your end.
Let’s delve into the benefits:
-
Reduced Fraud Risk: By verifying that customers have legitimate access to their nominated bank accounts, we significantly mitigate the risk of fraudulent activities.
-
Increased Accuracy: Eliminating the possibility of typos or errors in bank account details ensures transactional accuracy and reliability.

Additionally, gentle reminders are sent if verification is not completed within 48 hours.
