Rentlane is built for landlords whose tenants already pay by Zelle. Each roommate gets an individual rent share, payment status, balance, reminders, and late fees while rent still moves directly to your bank.
Rentlane connects to the landlord's bank through Plaid and watches for rent deposits. When a Zelle payment arrives, Rentlane matches it to the right tenant using the sender name, amount, and timing. You see paid, partial, late, and unpaid status per person instead of guessing from a bank statement.
Nothing about the payment flow. Tenants keep using Zelle in their own bank app and pay the landlord directly. Rentlane never moves money, never takes a percentage, and never asks tenants to switch to ACH, cards, or a payment portal.
Set the exact amount each tenant owes on the same lease.
See who is paid, partial, late, or unpaid without splitting a spreadsheet.
Short payments stay attached to the person who still owes money.
Send reminders to the roommate who is late, not the whole house.
Late fees follow the tenant and lease rules you set.
Confirm once when a parent pays for a student; Rentlane remembers it next month.
Most rent collection tools solve roommate payments by moving tenants onto their own ACH or card rails. Rentlane solves the problem landlords actually have: tenants already pay by Zelle, and the landlord needs to know which person paid. That is why Rentlane is bank-feed-first and per-roommate-first.
Rentlane connects to the landlord's bank through Plaid and matches incoming Zelle deposits to individual tenants using sender name, amount, and timing. Each roommate has their own rent share, balance, and payment status instead of one shared lease total.
No. Tenants keep paying the landlord directly through their own bank's Zelle flow. Rentlane never moves the money, never charges payment processing fees, and never sees bank credentials.
Yes. Each tenant on a lease can have an individual rent share. Rentlane tracks paid, partial, late, and unpaid status per person and rolls everything up to the lease and property ledger.
After one landlord confirmation, Rentlane remembers learned sender matches — for example, a parent's Zelle sender name can be tied to the right student tenant and auto-matched in future months.
Yes. Rentlane supports per-person reminders and per-tenant late fees, so the roommate who paid on time is not lumped together with the roommate who is late.
No. Rentlane is tracking and reconciliation software, not a payment processor. Rent moves directly from tenant to landlord through Zelle, and Rentlane reads the landlord's bank feed to keep the ledger accurate.
Everything below is part of the same $9/mo plan — built for small landlords who want one tool that just works.
