Criteria and fees change, so confirm details directly with Rently.
Common questions
How long does Rently approval take?
Rently advertises reviews within 24 hours. That's a stated timeframe, not a guarantee.
Is Rently interest-free?
It charges a service fee rather than a variable interest rate, so it still has a cost. Compare the total you'll repay.
