It will save you money in gasoline as well. You may consider setting up an automatic payment. Smart Housing is property management software that allows the tenant to make an online rent payment. Setting up an automatic online rent payment will help you establish a set of interval time of payment (usually monthly) from your account so you won’t have to repeatedly make a payment over and over again. It will automatically withdraw a certain amount from either your bank account, debit or credit card to save you time. Your automatic payment will continue to charge monthly until you cancel it.

• Helps information secured. The safety feature of online rent payment is your log-in information and some bank verification whenever you make payments online to help identify the one who’s making the payment. Using a bank check have most of your personal and bank information. Most renters make payment using bank check; it shows important bank information such as bank account, routing number and personal information (sometimes even your phone number). Online payments eliminate risks associated with the cash payment option. Thus, it is one of the reasons why paying online is safe and secured because you don’t have to show to the public your bank account information. And reduces the chance of check fraud.

It will help them establish a recurring payment to lessen their stress thinking about the monthly due date of their rent. The easier and convenient way, the more tenants would be interested and encouraged to make a payment.
