Best Online Rental Payment Options in 2022
I am looking for a low or no cost way for my tenants to pay online. I heard great things about Cozy in the past, but now that they have been acquired by apartments.com, I am less inclined to use this method for reasons that I will not go into here. What are you guys using for online payments and how do you like the service? Apologies if this topic has been posted recently. Everything I could bring up in my search was a little older.

Avail has been great for me. They have a free subscription option but realistically, to use all the site's functionality, it's $5/mo per property, which is very reasonable and includes unlimited electronic payments. Easy to use property advertising, customizable lease templates, customer service is fantastic, responsive and you get to talk to actual humans (super polite and well informed).
Cons? They don't have an app but I still login to their site from my phone, it's just not mobile-optimized. They also don't offer accounting or vendor payment options. I use Quicken for accounting, so what Avail offers works fine for my needs.
Other than that, it covers all the bases for a landlord with a small portfolio.
