“Sounds too good
to be true.”
So how is it real?

Ribbon isn't a fintech holding your money in some unregulated wallet. Your funds sit at Griffin Bank, a fully licensed UK bank — same protections as your high-street account.

Held at a regulated UK bank

Accounts are provided by Griffin Bank Ltd, regulated by the FCA and PRA (FRN 970920).

FSCS protected to £85,000

Eligible deposits are protected by FSCS up to £85,000.

Normal Faster Payments

Payments are forwarded over Faster Payments, so landlords receive rent as a normal UK bank transfer.

How it pays for itself

Ribbon earns a small fee from partner brands when you redeem points — similar to how credit-card cashback works. You never pay a penny, ever. The brands cover it.

My actual account.

This is from my real Ribbon account last month.

On 31 March 2026 I paid £795 in rent. It forwarded to my landlord, I got a downloadable proof of payment, and the points landed the same day — including a 2,500-point referral bonus from someone using my code.

The redeem options are the part most people don't expect: Amazon, Eurostar, Deliveroo, Hotels.com, Apple, Ryanair, Nike, Nando's, John Lewis, Asda — all common stuff you'd actually spend money on anyway.

The actual questions you'll have.

Yes. Ribbon gives you a personal account provided by Griffin Bank Ltd, a regulated UK bank infrastructure provider (FRN 970920). Eligible balances are covered by FSCS up to £85,000.

Sign up through the referral link and verify KIAN63DB is present during the final onboarding stage before submission. The bonus is credited after your first successful rent payment.

No. Your landlord receives a normal UK bank transfer with your existing payment reference, and no landlord action is required.

Standard earn rate is 1 point per £1 of rent. Some partner properties can earn 1.5 points per £1, increasing total annual value.

No. Identity checks are performed for AML/KYC compliance, but this is a soft verification process and does not create a hard credit search.

Yes. Ribbon works with private landlords, letting agents, and housing associations as long as your rent recipient accepts UK bank transfer payments.

Stop leaving money on the table.

Takes about 4 minutes. Costs nothing. Earns you £25 + whatever 1% of your annual rent is — every year you keep using it.
