I came across conflicting information online, so I wanted to double-check with the knowledgeable folks on this forum. 

Alternatively, there are high-yield online savings accounts like Marcus or others - the difference is that banks have some inherent risk, thus the FDIC insurance.

I’m always looking to implement best management practices so what can I, as a landlord, do to protect myself when accepting online payments?

@Yosef Ajami, we use Quickbooks Online for all of our Clients (including syndicators).

I wanted a cohesive, fairly upscale look, so bought new from a variety of places including a local furniture store, Amazon, Wayfair, Target online, Home Depot online, Pottery Barn, Article, and others.

What are the chances that someone would search this online forum, find this thread, and create an account just to make a positive comment on this thread about this company?
