Bacs, the not-for-profit organisation behind Direct Debit in the UK, has launched an initiative to encourage tenants to switch to Direct Debit for rental payments.
Open to housing associations, local authorities and ALMOs across the country, Bacs has produced a range of free marketing materials to help promote payment by Direct Debit, with housing providers benefitting from the long-term advantages of converting their tenants to Direct Debit.
As part of the campaign, tenants will be in line for a welcome cash windfall with five centrally-funded prizes of £1,000 worth of Love2shop vouchers up-for-grabs, offering an attractive incentive for people to change the way they pay their rent.
