Tenant who does not have a bank account

[Naoko Potts]

My tenant just informed me that his bank account was hacked and he had to shut it down. He has been paying his rent through apartments.com but since they charge high fee for the credit card transaction, he is asking me if he could mail me a money order. I am looking into another payment option such as PayNearMe. Do I have to have a property management software to use PayNearMe service? 

I hear horror stories about have tenants mail in their rents but do you think it is alright to have him mail his mail order to me? Thank you!
