About Offline Payments

Do you have a tenant who made a rent payment outside of the TurboTenant platform? You can easily record offline payments so you can keep track of all your charges in one place. During this 5-step process, you can easily record payments such as cash, check, or electronic payment.


Step 1 - Log in to your TurboTenant account and click on the Leases tab


Step 2 - Click View Payments under the relevant lease


Step 3 - Click the grey arrow next to the charge and click Record Payment


Step 4 - Select which tenant on the lease made the payment and which charge(s) they paid, as well as how and when they made the payment. If your renter only made a partial payment, you can specify the amount that the renter paid.


Step 5 - Click Record Payment to finalize the payment.

After completing this final step, you've officially recorded an offline payment for your tenant. At the bottom of the payment offline payment page, you can also select whether you'd like to send your renter a receipt.

Recording offline payments in the TurboTenant App

Step 2: Tap the + at the top right corner, then select Record Payment


Step 3: Select lease & tenant


Step 4: Adding a new charge


Step 5: Select your charge(s)


Step 6: Select your payment method


Step 7: Review your payment details and record your payment!

You're all set! From here, you'll be able to see your recorded payment under Charges in Payments.


TurboTips:

  • The charge will display as paid both in your account and your tenant’s. If you send the tenant a receipt, they will receive an emailed receipt and also find a history of their receipts within their portal in Settings > Rent Payments.

  • Any notes you enter for the payment will appear within the payment card in the renter's account.

  • If you haven't added the charge to your account, you cannot mark it as paid offline. See how to add charges here.

  • Upcoming charges cannot be marked as paid offline until they are sent. Charges are sent 7 days prior to their due date.
