For self-storage operators

Rent collection built for self-storage

A row of drive-up units or a climate-controlled facility, either way the rent is the same job done many times over. RentMerchant turns it into something that collects itself: tenants pay by bank or card, autopay keeps them current, and reminders chase the late ones so you do not have to.

The usual headaches

Lots of units, thin margins

When a single late month barely covers a unit, chasing payments by phone and re-keying a paper ledger eats the profit you do have.

Turnover never stops

Renters come and go constantly, so onboarding a new tenant and closing out an old one has to be fast or it falls behind.

Cash, checks, and mismatched records

Money arrives in three different ways and ends up in a spreadsheet that never quite matches the bank.

How RentMerchant helps

One recurring invoice per unit

Set the rate once per unit. The invoice goes out every month on schedule, so a hundred units take no more effort than one.

Autopay and automatic reminders

Tenants turn on autopay and stay current on their own. For everyone else, reminders and optional late fees run without you lifting a finger.

A ledger that matches the bank

Every payment is recorded against the unit and deposited to your connected account, so what you see always matches what landed.

Pay by bank or card

Tenants pay in about a minute from a phone (no app to download) and you keep the full rent because they cover the processing fee.

Common spaces

Drive-up units, climate-controlled lockers, RV and boat storage, container yards, and portable on-site units.

RentMerchant works for many kinds of space. See everything it does, or how landlords collect rent online.
