Detailed Overview

OpenEdge is the integrated technology division of Global Payments, one of the world's largest payment processors (handling 6.5+ billion transactions per year across 1 million+ merchants). In the self-storage industry, OpenEdge is best known as an official SiteLink Marketplace partner for credit card processing — making it one of the most common third-party processor choices for SiteLink operators who want to use a non-Storable payment solution. OpenEdge offers integrated card and ACH processing, EMV support, AVS verification, automatic reconciliation within SiteLink, and PCI compliance tools. Global Payments also owns Heartland Payment Systems (acquired 2016), making it the largest payment company with direct self-storage industry presence.
Tenant Inc.
Tenant Inc. (founded ~2016) is a cloud-based self-storage management platform that includes integrated payment processing as part of its all-in-one suite. Unlike some competitors, Tenant Inc. offers flexibility — operators can use their native payment processing or connect a third-party processor of their choice. The platform handles ACH, credit/debit cards, automated delinquency management workflows, and end-to-end online rentals. Tenant Inc. emphasizes operator data ownership, meaning tenant and payment data belongs to the operator and is not locked in. The platform also includes Charm (a call management tool) and a competitive rate structure for payments.
