Rent Collection & Invoices
Collect Rent
Rent collection in RentAxis runs on the schedule you set on each lease. Once leases are in place and (optionally) Stripe is connected, most of the cycle is automatic.
How the cycle works
- Invoices generate from each active lease according to its rent amount and frequency.
- Tenants are notified (if email notifications are on) and can pay online or you can record a payment manually.
- Payments apply to the invoice and mark it paid; the activity flows into accounting and reports.
- Reminders can nudge tenants about upcoming or overdue rent.
- Late fees apply automatically if the invoice passes its due date and a late-fee policy is set.
See what's owed
- Rent Collection screen — the working view of what's due and what's paid.
- Reports → A/R Aging Summary — outstanding balances by age.
- Reports → Delinquent Tenants — who's behind.
Take a payment
- Online: with Stripe connected, tenants pay from the portal or an emailed invoice.
- Manually: open the invoice and Receive Payment (cash, check, transfer, and more), entering the amount and date.
Reminders
Configure rent reminders under Settings → Notifications (and related preferences). Reminders respect your notification on/off settings.
Note
Each organization's reminder and auto-send settings are applied independently — your settings won't affect another organization you manage.
