For self-storage operators using Yardi Storage Manager, Yardi Breeze, or Yardi Voyager, the platform includes native payment processing as a registered Payment Facilitator in both the US and Canada. A standout feature is free ACH processing for operators — eliminating one of the most common per-transaction costs. Yardi also offers a Walk-In Payment System (WIPS) for cash payments at retail partner locations, text-to-pay, Amazon Alexa voice payments, and autopay. The platform performs ACH account validation to comply with WEB Debit Rule requirements. Yardi Payments is the most cost-effective choice for large operators already on the Yardi ecosystem.
