How to grow your payments app with letting and estate agents

By SendPay Business · · 2 min read

Your own money app
  1. Name it and pick your colours
  2. Choose what it does
  3. Launch when you are ready

Letting and estate agents handle money from many people every month: holding deposits from new tenants, rent that has to be chased, and payments passed on to landlords. A payments app that makes each payment clear and easy to track can win small agencies, and every tenant and landlord they work with sees your app.

Remind before rent is late

A friendly reminder a few days before rent is due, with the payment link inside, saves the agent from chasing and helps tenants stay on track.

Grow through tenants and landlords

Every agency works with dozens of tenants and landlords. One agency on your app can bring you a whole list of people who pay and get paid every month.
