Yes, you can require a security deposit for the items you list. This helps ensure that your item is returned in good condition and provides you with peace of mind.
When you list an item with a security deposit, the renter must pay the deposit upfront. This deposit is securely held and will be refunded once the item is returned in the same condition it was lent out.
All users renting items go through a strict verification process using Veriff. This process includes confirming their identity and passport, ensuring they are who they say they are.
Renters are required to bring a valid form of identification and proof of address when picking up an item. This ensures that the person picking up the item matches the verified identity and address on record.
The comprehensive verification process ensures that all renters have been thoroughly checked, reducing the risk of fraudulent activity. This helps create a safer environment for both item owners and renters.
