RentGuarantor continues to deliver rapid growth, with the latest quarter nearly doubling revenues year-on-year. The strong performance was fueled by the addition of 91 new partners (including 4 councils), a successful fundraising round to support growing capex requirements, and increased brand visibility through attendance of 7 major industry events during the period.

During the quarter, RentGuarantor reported stellar full-year results, with another 72% increase in turnover to £1.27m in FY24, building on similar revenue performance in FY23 and FY22.  The surge in sales was driven by a 50% increase in tenant contracts, coupled with a 14% rise in the average contract price.

In FY24,  exceeded its previously set target for new users, letting agents, and landlord clients, growing to over 25,000 new signups per month. Simultaneously,  expanded its professional rent guarantor services to over 1,100 letting agents in the UK. The aforementioned £455k fundraise completed in January 2025, should fuel 's growth in FY25, enabling the group to expand its headcount and meet surging demand for professional rent guarantor services in the UK.

Furthermore, in July 2024  introduced a three-year guarantee contract to address rising demand for longer-term tenancies in the UK private rental sector. The three-year contract should further boost recurring revenues and accelerate growth. To support this demand, RentGuarantor is developing its next-gen tech platform to improve user experience and expand capacity for growth in FY25.
