Frequently Asked Questions

Rentigo is the latest property management solution created for property managers and landlords who want to easily collect rent and manage their properties online. Rentigo offers both a web portal and a mobile app, allowing you to complete your tasks anytime, from anywhere – making rent collection and communicating with your tenants easier than ever. Rentigo is a free software (always, regardless of the number of units you manage) and only collects payment processing fees. All property management features, from opening and closing maintenance tickets to generating customizable reports and tracking all your properties online, are free to use, with no additional costs.

Opening an account with Rentigo is as easy as using it – simply go to our website’s Login section and sign up. Complete the online form, including all your contact details (email and mobile phone number), follow the registration steps (you will receive a text message with a verification code during sign up, so make sure to have your phone nearby), and at the end of the online form click “verify & continue”. That’s it – no need to worry about printing, signing, scanning and sending documents, once you open your account, we’ll take care of everything from there.

No setup fee (or monthly fee, or per-unit fee, for that matter) is required to use Rentigo’s property management software.

That’s easy, Rentigo is perfect for you. Rentigo is the ideal solution for landlords and property managers of all sizes – regardless of the number of units you manage, Rentigo can accommodate one property or one hundred properties. (And since the software is free, there’s no pricing plan that relies on the number of units or properties you manage, even if you add more later on.)

Once you’ve created an account, you need to upload the information of at least one property that you own or manage. The system will ask you to complete an online form with your company or sole proprietor details, along with your personal information and bank account details. When you are ready to submit the application, be sure to check the “Terms and Conditions” and then click on “Submit Application”. The Compliance Team will review the information and should approve your account within 3-5 business days. Once approved, you will receive a notification via email. (If further documentation is required, you will also be notified.)

Yes, Rentigo protects the information and privacy of our users. (We use SSL encryption and secure protocols such as HTTPS. All credit card and account information is stored in PCI DSS compliant network.)

Setup fee $0; Monthly fee $0; Annual fee $0!
We only charge for payments processed through the system. The processing fee depends on the payment method the tenant will chose to use (e-check, debit or credit cards). The e-check fee is $0.99 per check; debit card fee is 1% of the rent amount; credit card fee is 2.5% of the rent amount.
Other than the rent collection processing fees, the complete property management software (offering maintenance tickets, customizable reports, vacancy tracking and more) is free to use, for an unlimited number of units.

That’s up to you to decide; the property managers/landlords have the option to decide if the fees will be covered by them or by the tenant.

No, you don’t. Anyone can use Rentigo. Rentigo’s property management platform can be used by Sole Proprietors, Individuals or Corporations.

Yes. Rentigo is perfect for landlords, regardless of how many units you have. If you’re looking for a free software to digitize property management and rent collection, Rentigo is definitely your best option.

Log into your account and click on the “Properties” tab, add each property and save.

Once you’ve added and saved your properties, a pop-up window will open, asking you to add the details of the tenant living in that property. If you want to add another tenant, go to the “Tenant” tab, choose the name of the property, and click on “add tenant”. (When adding your tenants, please make sure to list all available contact information, including email addresses and mobile phone numbers; we’ll send them an invitation to sign up to Rentigo, followed by rent payment reminders in the future – taking all the load off you.)

Sure, the Rentigo team is always happy to help. If you have too many properties to be uploaded manually, you can send us an Excel file with your properties and tenants’ info and we’ll upload them for you (please make sure to include all information, including your tenants’ emails and mobile phone numbers.)

Once you’ve uploaded your tenants into the system, we’ll send them an email to let them know they can start paying their rent online using Rentigo. Each tenant receives a personal invitation to download Rentigo’s free mobile app. They only need to sign up, set up their payment method of choice, and pay their rent. Each month before rent is due, we will remind them to pay online, on time.

Yes. When you upload a tenant, you will be required to choose their late fee starting day. You also have the option to choose whether the late fee will be a fixed fee or a daily fee.

You can log into your Rentigo dashboard at any time from your computer or mobile app to see an accurate status report of your properties, monthly rent paid, pending funds, vacancy status and more.

Rental payments are processed as soon as the tenant pays through the mobile app. Once a tenant makes the payment, it will automatically alert the system and show them as “paid”. If paying via e-check, the processing time can take 5-6 business days to settle (money credited into your bank account). Credit/Debit cards usually takes 24-48 business hours. When settled, payments will show up in your account.

Yes. The mobile app includes a “maintenance” feature, where your tenants can communicate with you and open an online service request. You can follow up on the requests via your web-based dashboard or through the mobile app.

(Payment methods include credit card, debit card, or ACH/e-check.)

Yes. Rentigo gives you the option to select your preferred payment method – you can pay your rent with debit & credit cards, as well as automatic debit from your bank account (e-check).

In addition to rent, you can use Rentigo to pay any other fees that were added to your account by your property manager, like parking, gym, pet fee, etc. Currently, we cannot process municipal or governmental bills.

Please make sure that you clicked the correct payment type (e-check, credit or debit card) and also check that your bank details are up to date. If you’re still experiencing problems, we’re here to help you – contact our Support Team at [email protected].
