How do I collect payments from roommates?

Apartments.com works great for roommates or shared living spaces. In this article, you'll learn how to set up Apartments.com to best collect rent for your leasing setup

If you're renting to roommates on the same lease

If you have multiple people paying rent for the same space, you'll create a single rent collection setup and add all paying renters to that one setup. You'll enter the total amount of rent for the lease. Each roommate will then claim their portion of the rent and schedule payments. 

Roommates can see who in the group has scheduled or sent a payment, so everyone stays informed. Only the payer's name and payment amount can be seen by roommates—no banking or private info is ever shared in Apartments.com.
