Create a Rhino Partner Account

Your Rhino Partner account enables you to see who has been invited to sign up for Rhino, view properties currently set up with Rhino, and view and manage any policies that have been setup.

The first step in offering your tenants security deposit insurance is to create a Rhino Partner Account. 

In your Rentec Direct account: 

1. Click Settings
2. Under Tools click Utilities
3. Click the Rhino Security Deposit Insurance button
   
   
4. Insert your Name and your Email Address
   
   Note: The status will show pending as their system sends you an email invitation. You can either use the email link or wait for the invitation link in this setting to appear. 
   
   

Whether you utilize the email sent by Rhino, or the get started now link in Settings, you will be taken to the Rhino portal to create your Rhino Partner account. 

In your Rhino Partner portal: 

1. Enter your First and Last Name
2. Enter your email address  
3. Create and enter a password

After creating your Rhino Partner account you can then start to enable Security Deposit Insurance for your properties. 

Note: Go ahead and close your Rhino portal after you've created your account. All your properties will need to be enabled in your Rentec Direct account and not through the Rhino portal.

New features labeled as "Rentec Labs" are just leaving the "lab" (aka our software developers' workshop). A feature included in Rentec Labs has already gone through rigorous internal testing; however, since it is a big new feature it may have had limited testing outside of our offices. Once the feature has been in use externally for some time with no issues, it will leave Rentec Labs. More information on Rentec Labs can be found here: What is Rentec Labs?
