How to Take Credit Cards for your Corporate Rental

Accepting credit cards is a must with corporate tenants who may be traveling on business and using the company card. It may be their only method of paying you.

What are some of the other benefits to accepting credit cards?

  • Professionalism: You give your tenants an expected level of professionalism and confidence that you’re running a real business.
  • Convenience: You make it easy for them to pay you with little hassle and added work. They’re busy and don’t have time for snail mail.
  • Competitive Advantage:  Other “by owner” landlords are taking credit cards. If you don’t, they may have to go to your nearest competition instead.
  • Documented Transactions: Credit cards enable you to document your transactions should anything be disputed.
  • Cash Flow: Credit cards speed up the transaction. No waiting for checks to arrive in the mail and to later clear with the bank. The money is in your account… quickly and easily.

Two Tips!

  1. CHBO recommends Paypros for your credit card needs. Tell them you are a property owner for CHBO to learn about their special deals.
  2. Once you are able to accept credit cards, be sure to turn on the Credit Card symbol on your listing so you can attract more tenants! You can do this by logging into your MyCHBO account.
