Do not use Popmoney as rental payment !
In eviction preceding for non payment in GA, one of those questions from the court to LL: " Have you accept ANY payment since filing ? " - if the answer is Yes, the whole case is throw out.
E-rent payment is beautiful but can be the double edges sword, as the tenant just need to transfer $1 to LL's account.
For any E-rent payment to be considered, the LL must have the ability to STOP/REFUSE incoming payment from any giving particular transfer. This is not the case for Popmey:
Me : I would like to know how to reject/block an incoming payment. I have been to the FAQs but none is avail. Thank you for your support !!!
PM: Thank you for your recent inquiry on how to cancel/stop your Popmoney personal payment.
We are unable to make changes on your behalf due to security and compliance reasons. However, the sender of the payment has the ability to cancel or stop the current payment, depending on how quickly they act.

@Kiet N. - that's a real shame and loss in court fees. I only accept two methods (money order as @Account Closed mentioned and online payments through Hemlane). I also learned the hard way by allowing direct deposit and the tenant entered $550 in my account before the court date ... I won't give them direct deposit any more. Here were my requirements with online payments (and have been a strong advocate for my current provider because they offer it):
1. requirement to receive only full payments (no partial)
2. ability to cancel payment requests after I serve the eviction notice
3. won't give the tenant my bank account info (learned this mistake from direct deposit)
4. requires me to request payment (although I do recurring and shut off if needed) before tenant can pay me
The major property management softwares should provide this feature.
