How to grow your payments app with small landlords
By SendPay Business · · 2 min read
Many landlords own just a few rooms or flats and collect rent by hand, by bank transfer or by chasing tenants on the phone. A simple way to request, receive and track rent can save them hours every month.
Understand rent day
Ask a few small landlords:
- How do tenants pay today?
- How do they know who has paid?
- What happens when rent is late?
- How do they keep records for tax time?
Make paying easy for tenants
A payment link sent before rent day, with the amount and the room clearly shown, removes most of the back and forth.
Give landlords clear records
A simple list of who paid, when and how much is often the feature landlords value most.
Grow through word of mouth
Landlords know other landlords. One happy landlord often brings others, and every tenant sees your app on rent day.
