How does the Rent-to-Own application process work?
Complete the online application form. You will need to submit your last 3 months bank statements (not older than 7 days), latest payslip and a copy of your ID. Approval takes less than 24 hours.
On approval we will email you the rental agreement and debit order authorisation form. After we have received the signed documents and your first month rental payment reflects in our bank account, your new item will be delivered to you.
You can also apply and submit the required documents to us at info@rentalplus.co.za.
Which payment methods do you accept?
We only accept one method, namely direct debit from your bank account.
How does Rent-Your-Own work?
You use your own appliance, electronics, furniture, etc. as security in order to obtain a cash amount upfront from us. The biggest advantage to you is that you get instant access to cash whilst still using the item.
We buy the item from you, and you then enter a rent-to-own contract with us, whereby you rent the same item from us over a fixed period of 12 months.
At the end of the rental term the item is yours again!
What are the advantages of Rent-Your-Own?
- You instantly get cash when we buy the item from you – funds that you can use for unforseen financial expenses, business venture, etc.
- You still get use of the item that we buy from you!
- The item becomes your property again after 12 months rental from us.
- An easy, effortless way to get access to cash.
