What Our Clients Say

Margaret Njeri - Landlord -
My tenant requested to use the app to pay their rent and I said, why not - if it does'nt charge me anything and I get my money to bank account instantly. Instant SMS with tenant name, house number and even their arrears. Am onboarding all the remaining tenants. Good job Rentsoft!.

Job Kiti - Tenant -
Used since 2023. Very easy to use once I linked my house and landlord bank. Got a rent loan and no one has called me to repay my loan! It was a very clever idea to divide rent loan in small pieces and add them as fees to the rent every month. It feels like free money.

Oscar Anayo - Tenant -
I just started using Rentsoft and I can say the Flex Rent feature is the best! I never believed I can send 100 KES for rent and it doesn't bother my landlord. Rent does not feel like the biggest expense to me any more. Am waiting to get my next rent loan in October.

FAQ

Tenants

Can I use Rentsoft if my landlord/managers is not registered with Rentsoft?

Yes. You can pay your rent via Rentsoft even if your manager or landlord is not registered with Rentsoft. Simply sign up, login and choose “Add my House”. You will register your house by entering house name, the bank account to which you always pay rent, and your manager’s/landlord’s/agent’s mobile number. You can then pay rent via Rentsoft. They will recieve an SMS every time you pay rent. However, it is highly recommended that you inform your landlord/agent prior to using Rentsoft.

Can I use Rentsoft to pay rent for multiple houses?

Yes. Rentsoft allows you to add up to five houses. Once you have added the first house, swipe the top tile(upper section of the app with current house details) to the left and you will see the button to add a new house.

How does Flex Rent/ Lipa Rent Pole Pole work?

Flex Rent (also known as Lipa Rent Pole Pole) is a rent payment option that allows tenants to pay rent in small, flexible amounts—starting from as little as 50 KES.For example, if your monthly rent is 5,000 KES, you can start paying next month's rent early by adding small amounts—like 50 KES at a time—into your Flex Rent (Lipa Rent Pole Pole) account. Over time, these small payments add up.You also choose a date when you'd like your full rent amount to be sent to your landlord or agent.On that date, our system programmatically checks if you've saved enough to cover the full rent. If the amount is available, it sends payment instructions to KCB Bank to transfer the funds directly to your landlord.If there's not enough in the Flex Rent account, the payment won’t go through. Your account will be marked as “rent overdue,” and Rentsoft will continue checking your balance every six hours until there’s enough to make the payment. You can also automate Lipa Rent Pole Pole using M-pesa Ratiba/Standing Order and live like you bought the house!

Property Management

How do I get started?

Create a manager account with your details, including bank account info. Log in and add apartments via CSV. The system will generate house IDs for each unit, which you can share with tenants.

How are rent payments settled?

Payments are processed automatically and settled directly into manager/landlord bank account by KCB bank. When tenants pay from the app, the funds are instantly transferred to the bank account linked to the house. Managers can also activate cumulative settlement. Turning this setting on allows rent payments to be settled in landlord wallet. Landlord/manager can initiate withdrawal of up to 1,000,000 KES per request anytime. Withdrawals are processed instantly.

Is Rentsoft free for managers/landlords?

Yes! Rentsoft has no setup fees, no monthly charges, and no transaction fees.

How many apartments or units can I manage with Rentsoft?

Unlimited. Rentsoft is designed to simplify the task of managing multiple units. For this reason, it allows bulk upload of units using excel sheets. The task of adding tenants is eliminated, further simplifying the process. Tenants onboard themselves once they are provided with the house ID. House IDs do not change. So, managers can stick them within the house for use by incoming tenants.

I already have a management system and don't want to migrate

No problem. Rentsoft can work alongside your existing system. Using Rentsoft API, your developer can integrate Rentsoft with your current system so that payments made via Rentsoft app reflect in your custom rent collection system.

How do I use Rentsoft API?

Go to your manager dashboard, under account and settings, navigate to API. You only need to register a callback url. All payments made to your Rentsoft account will be sent to the url in Json format. Payment data sent via API include house number, tenant names, tenant phone number, tenant arrears, amount etc. Developer documentation is available on the manager dashboard.

What are rent coupons, and why should I give tenants rent discounts?

Just like any other business, you need coupons to drive sales, in this case rent payments. Giving tenants expiring coupons will encourage them to pay their rent before the coupon expires, thus reducing your days in accounts receivable. Only Rentsoft enables you to do that.

What is manager commission and how does it work?

Manager commissions are for managers/agents who take a percentage of rent payments from the houses they manage. Upon agreement with the landlord, managers on Rentsoft can earn their commissions every time tenants make payments. A percentage agreed upon by the manager and landlord will be deducted from the rent paid and credited to manager’s digital wallet. Managers can then link a secondary bank account and withdraw their earnings from the dashboard.

Rentsoft is proudly owned by Huma Ventures Limited and Westcloud Digital Technologies Limited. Rentsoft is not a bank or financial institution. All rent payments are securely processed by KCB Bank. Rentsoft provides the technology layer behind Lipa Rent Pole Pole - tracking tenant payments and notifying the bank when full rent should be released to landlords.
