Features

Everything a rental needs, in one login.

From the first application to the monthly deposit, the work happens in one place instead of across email, a spreadsheet, and your bank.

Tenants pay the way they like

Bank transfer or debit and credit card. A one-time payment, or autopay so the rent just shows up each month.

Rent that collects itself

Set the rent once. The invoice goes out monthly and the reminders handle the follow-up.

A portal residents use

They pay, check their history, read a full ledger, and request repairs from one place.

Applications and leases online

Share a link to take rental applications, review them, and get the lease signed electronically with an audit trail.

Repairs tracked to done

Tenants report issues with photos. You see every request and where it stands.

Statements for owners

Managing for someone else? Each owner gets a login that shows what was collected, the fee, and the net.

How it works

You can be collecting rent this afternoon.

Three steps from signing up to money in your account. Most landlords are done before lunch.

Add a property

Put in the address and the rent. That is the whole setup.

Invite your tenant

They get a link to a portal with your name on it, ready to pay.

Get paid

Reminders go out, autopay runs, and the money lands in your account.

For landlords

Spend Saturday with your family, not your checkbook.

Rent comes in on its own. You see what was paid, what is late, and what to do next, all from one dashboard. When something needs your attention, you get a nudge instead of a surprise.

  • Automatic invoices, reminders, and late fees
  • Online applications and leases you can sign on a phone
  • Owner statements for the properties you manage
  • A message thread with each tenant, no personal number shared

For tenants

Pay rent in about a minute, then forget about it.

No checks, no stamps, no driving a payment over. Tenants pay from a phone, save the method they like, and turn on autopay so rent is never late by accident.

  • Pay by bank or card in a few taps
  • Turn on autopay and stop thinking about due dates
  • Report a maintenance issue with photos
  • Sign the lease and keep documents in one place

Landlords on RentMerchant

Rent collection that stays out of your way.

“Rent used to mean a stack of checks and a drive to the bank. Now it lands in my account and I get a text when it clears.”
RB Renee, Columbus OH
“I set autopay for my four units and stopped chasing anyone on the first of the month. The reminders do the awkward part for me.”
MD Marcus, Dallas TX
“Moving over from my old service took an afternoon. My tenants liked paying from their phones, and the late payments mostly stopped.”
PK Priya, Austin TX

Questions, answered.

Is RentMerchant free for landlords?

Yes. You can collect rent for free on up to three properties. Tenants cover the payment fee. Pro is $15 a month for unlimited properties.

Who pays the processing fee?

The tenant pays it at checkout, so collecting rent does not cost you anything. You can see the exact fee before anyone pays.

How do tenants pay?

By bank transfer (ACH) or debit and credit card. They can pay once or set up autopay so rent goes out on its own each month.

How fast do I get my money?

Payments deposit to the bank account you connect. Card payments usually clear in a couple of business days and bank transfers a little after that.

Is my information secure?

Payments run through Stripe, the same processor large companies use. We never store raw card or bank numbers, and your account can use two-factor login.

Can I move over from another service?

Yes. Add your properties and invite your tenants, and you can run RentMerchant alongside your old setup until you are ready to switch fully.

Let your rent run itself.

Add your first property in a few minutes. It is free, and your tenants can pay today.
