TDS has launched a new tenant lifecycle app, in partnership with OpenBrix.

tlyfe, available exclusively to TDS customers free of charge, is designed to make the move in process easier for the tenant and help manage the entire lifecycle of a tenancy, including viewing and managing their tenancy deposits.

The features of the app, which integrates with other industry products, include verified digital ID verification, right-to-rent checks, an interactive move in process, and auto document storage.

In addition to these features, tlyfe can, we are told, also help tenants build their credit rating. The app keeps an ongoing digital record of all rental payments, and provided they are paid on time, tlyfe can help to build a tenant’s credit score by allowing tenants to add these payments to their rental histories.

Steve Harriott, group CEO, at TDS, commented: “tlyfe is a ground-breaking new tenant app that will help tenants manage their deposit and renting experience in a different, better way. This will undoubtedly make life easier for our customers. We’re really excited about introducing tlyfe to our tenants.

Adam Piggott, CEO at OpenBrix, added: “The release of tlyfe will make a real difference to tenants and give them a huge advantage when managing their rentals.

“To ensure tylfe is aligned with government policy, many of the features have been developed following discussions with the Department of Levelling Up, Housing and Communities.”
