Can tenants pay rent online?

Yes. Each tenant gets access to a branded payment portal where they can pay rent via ACH, credit card, or debit card. They can set up autopay, update payment methods, and view payment history — no app download required, just a secure link.

How much does it cost to collect rent via ACH?

ACH rent payments are processed at a flat per-transaction fee (not a percentage), which is significantly cheaper than card processing on large rent amounts. For example, collecting $2,000 in rent via ACH costs a flat fee rather than the $60+ a percentage-based card processor would charge.

Do you integrate with property management software?

Yes. PaySec integrates with AppFolio, Buildium, Rent Manager, Yardi, and other major property management platforms. Rent payments, late fees, and deposit information sync automatically, keeping your ledgers accurate without manual entry.

Can I handle security deposits separately?

Yes. PaySec supports separate trust accounts for security deposits, ensuring compliance with state regulations that require deposit funds to be held separately from operating funds. Deposits and refunds are tracked individually per tenant.
