Detailed Overview
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.
Yardi Payment Processing
Yardi (founded 1984) is one of the largest real estate software companies in the world, with 15+ million units on its platforms. 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.
