Rental Application Verification

Instant Tenant Income and Rent Payment Verification

Rental applications require income and rent payment verification. Fiskil enables instant verification using banking data, accelerating tenant approval while reducing fraud.

Rental Verification is Slow and Fraud-Prone

Manual verification of tenant income and rent history is time-consuming and vulnerable to fraud.

  • Payslips and references can be forged

  • Verification takes 3-5 days delaying good tenants

  • Landlords lose rental income during vacancy

  • No reliable way to verify rent payment history

  • Previous landlord references are subjective
