Secure your rental deposit and avoid paying it

For tenants, paying a rental deposit can be financially difficult, as it has to be paid to the landlord together with the first rent before moving in. The deposit from the old apartment is also blocked, which is why it is referred to as a double burden. goCaution helps tenants by not having to provide a financial security deposit, giving them financial flexibility.

In return for payment of a moderate premium to goCaution, your landlord receives a rental guarantee certificate that guarantees the rental guarantee. Like the traditional blocked bank account, goCaution complies with all prescribed Swiss legal provisions and offers the same legal security as a traditional rental deposit account. In contrast to the banks' rental deposit accounts, goCaution does not require multiple pages of forms, but offers customers digital onboarding. The online registration tool is intuitive to use and takes no longer than 5 minutes to complete.

Security deposit insurance is particularly helpful when moving house, as you do not have to pay the security deposit for both the new and the old apartment at the same time.
