Prices in CAD. Payments rounded up to whole dollars.

  • First payment: Your first rent portion + the $9.90 monthly membership fee.
  • Second payment: Your remaining rent portion + the admin fee (0.75% of your total rent), charged when you split. For $1,700 rent, that’s $12.75.
  • Debit-card processing: If you pay by debit card, a processing fee of 0.6% applies to each payment.
  • Your landlord’s fees: Your landlord may charge their own late fees if rent arrives after the 1st or your lease’s due date. They receive full rent after you make your first payment.
