If you pay your rent via ECHECK on your portal it is FREE!
If you pay your rent via credit card there is a charge that the credit card processor charges and we can’t do anything about. It is convenient when things are tight but there is a cost to that and it is $35 as of this article publish date. Please also remember that even debit cards attached to checking accounts are considered credit cards when paying as a VISA, MasterCard, or Discover.
