Electronic Rent Collection
What is the best platform (for a landlord and tenant) for paying and collecting rent in a long distance situation. I see Cozy mentioned in the older posts over and over but it looks like they have somewhat merged with Apartments.com. Are people still using this platform? I’m not overly concerned for a 5 day waiting period for the funds to show up, but I would like to have tools available to me as the landlord to see things like the payment is in process, payment history, etc. Any suggestions that help set this process up correctly with my first property is much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

@Doug Meeuwsen Cozy is good all around platform for beginners. If all you are worried about is payment not all the extras Cozy helps with Cash App is easy and you are instantly paid no waiting or processing payments right when they send then it is available to you. They do instant deposits to your bank account or free for 3 day wait as well as you can receive a Cash App debit card and just leave it on there and use as needed like a regular debt card. You can also see pay history with dates and total overall they have paid you.
