Singaporean rental platform launches free home insurance

The insurance is embedded directly into the platform in partnership with discovermarket.

Singapore-based rental platform Rently has introduced complimentary home insurance for users of its Rently Care service living in non-landed properties. 

Launched on 4 April 2025, the plan covers home contents and offers up to three emergency repair services per coverage period, with each service valued at up to US$116.71 (S$150).

The insurance is embedded directly into the Rently platform through a partnership with global insurtech firm discovermarket.

It provides coverage for household contents, renovations, and specific incidents like fire or burst pipes. 

Additional benefits include up to US$778.04 (S$1,000) coverage for valuables such as jewellery, temporary accommodation if the home becomes uninhabitable, and extended appliance warranty worth up to US$311.22 (S$400) under the highest tier.

The move follows a rise in rental scams, with over 13,000 cases reported in 2025. 

Rently said the product aims to improve tenant security and address gaps in the rental experience.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
