How it
Works

Housing Perks is the UKs most popular cost of living support solution for housing association and local authority tenants.

Tenants can save money on their everyday spending or pay arrears as they shop and receive hardship payouts.

The app is free to use and discounts are on the essentials that they use every day. Tenants can save up to 15% using the app by paying with vouchers, cashback and discount codes. Tenants can receive free items too.

The UK's Only Pay Rent Arrears As You Shop Solution

When a tenant spends £100 at a supermarket for their weekly shop using Housing Perks app, we automatically put £5 towards their rent and arrears at no cost to the tenant. This works at hundreds of national retailers we've partnered with including all the major supermarkets.

The transaction can be for virtually any amount and we put up to 15% of the transaction towards rent and arrears at no cost to the tenant. This is the first and only solution of its kind for local authority and housing association tenants.

Tenants can easily cover their minimum payment towards arrears every week by using the app to pay for their essentials. For tenants not in arrears, they can save up for a month's free rent.
