The Fastest Way to Get Paid.

1

Set the Schedule

Choose your rent frequency and specify any upfront Rent in Advance. The platform automatically caps advance requests to your state’s legal maximum, keeping you perfectly compliant from day one.
2

The Tenant Connects

Your tenant securely links their bank via standard Direct Debit or ultra-fast PayTo. Because our platform is 100% free for tenants to use, you get zero pushback and faster onboarding.

Instant Disbursement

When rent is paid, the system automatically issues legal receipts to both parties, updates your master rental ledger, and instantly disburses the funds directly to your account. No end-of-month delays.

Active arrears protection & auto-retries

The system works to protect your income even when things go wrong. We automatically send polite email reminders to tenants before their rent is due. If a payment fails, both parties receive an immediate, clear notification explaining the issue, and the system will automatically retry the payment to secure your funds without you having to lift a finger.

Zero-admin ledgers and automated rent receipts.

Throw away your manual spreadsheets. Our platform provides a real-time, shared schedule of upcoming and past payments for both you and your tenant. The moment a rent payment clears, the system instantly updates your master ledger and automatically generates and emails a legally compliant rent receipt to both parties.

Instant, 24/7 payments with PayTo.

Stop waiting days to confirm your rent has cleared. Unlike traditional Direct Debit, which requires a multi-day “request and response” cycle with the bank, PayTo is instantaneous. It also operates 24/7, 365 days a year—meaning your rent is never delayed by weekends, bank processing windows, or public holidays.

payment methods

Zero transaction fees

Software only works if your tenant actually uses it. We remove all friction by letting tenants choose their preferred method—either standard Direct Debit or ultra-fast PayTo. Best of all, payments are strictly fee-free for both you and your tenant. This ensures you remain fully compliant in states that legally require tenants be offered at least one fee-free payment method. No hidden percentages, no “convenience” fees—just smooth, reliable cash flow and happy tenants.

Clear Onboarding Steps

Clear Onboarding Steps

Never wonder if a tenant is ready for move-in. Your master checklist updates the second a tenant connects their bank account or successfully clears their upfront rent.

Manual Payment Overrides

Manual Payment Overrides

Total flexibility for real-world scenarios. If a tenant ever pays via cash or a one-off bank transfer, you can manually mark the period as ‘Paid’ to keep your ledger and receipts perfectly in sync.

Zero-Fee Compliance

Zero-Fee Compliance

Stay on the right side of the law. We provide 100% fee-free payment methods for tenants, ensuring you meet state-mandated requirements without any additional transaction costs for you.

Still have questions?

That’s right. Unlike other platforms that take a percentage of your rent or charge tenants “convenience fees” to pay their bills, PropertyNow is 100% fee-free for both parties. Rent collection and automated processing are fully included in your standard subscription.

We disburse funds the moment they clear. If your tenant uses PayTo, the payment is virtually instantaneous and can hit your account within minutes. Standard Direct Debit typically takes 2-3 business days to clear through the banking system.

PayTo operates 24/7, 365 days a year—meaning rent can be paid and disbursed on a Sunday or a public holiday without delay. Standard Direct Debit relies on traditional banking hours; if a payment date falls on a weekend, the bank will process it on the next business day.

You don’t have to chase them. Both you and the tenant are notified immediately with a clear explanation of why the payment didn’t go through. The system then automatically retries the payment to secure your funds before you ever have to intervene.

No problem! If a tenant pays you via cash or a one-off bank transfer, you can manually mark that scheduled payment as ‘Paid’ in your dashboard. This ensures your rental ledger stays 100% accurate and still triggers an automated receipt for the tenant.

The moment your lease is signed and the tenant connects their bank account, the system can automatically trigger the initial Rent in Advance payment in accordance with the due date. We even automatically prefill the amount and cap it to your state’s legal maximum to ensure you stay compliant.
