We kept it simple, Baselane is free

Our platform for landlords and renters is free — get started today.

To achieve our goal of empowering independent landlords with tailored financial technology, we must make our services accessible to all – that is why we made Baselane’s core services free.

There is no cost for landlords to use Baselane. Similarly, there is no cost for renters – paying rent by bank transfer (ACH) is free.

While our core services are free, we make money in a few ways:

1. Banking and Payments – We earn interest on the balances held in Baselane bank accounts. We also charge tenants 2.99% if they choose to make rent payments via credit or debit card; we take a small percentage of this processing fee.
2. Premium Features – We are constantly rolling out new features; some non-core features will only be available for a small monthly fee.
3. Using Partner Services – We are building a marketplace to offer essential landlord and tenant services. We will make a commission if you decide to use one of our partner’s services.

We are constantly improving our product and love hearing from our customers. If you have any questions or feedback, please get in touch using the chat or by email.

How will Baselane save me time & money?

Baselane dramatically simplifies the process of managing your rental property finances. Instead of using a series of separate financial services and tools to manage your banking, bookkeeping, cash flow & performance analytics, and rent collection, Baselane centralizes everything in one place. This cuts down the time you need to spend on manual back-office work. It also saves you money by offering a free solution vs. the hidden fees and multiple charges you pay for a multitude of services. Baselane also helps you increase your property returns through better insights to empower the key investment decisions you make.

We also simplify the rent payment experience for tenants, which means happier tenants, less back and forth, and more on-time rent payments.

How does rent collection work in Baselane?

Baselane makes it easy to set up a lease and collect rent from your tenants. Once you set up a lease on Baselane, your tenant will receive an invite to join Baselane’s Tenant Platform, where they can see their invoices and pay rent. Your tenants can pay rent by ACH (bank-to-bank transfer) as well as by debit or credit card, and easily enroll in auto-pay. Our payments partner securely processes your tenant’s rent payments directly into your bank account.

How can I use Baselane to manage my bookkeeping and assess my cash flows?

Baselane provides intuitive and easy-to-use tools to manage your bookkeeping and assess your cash flows. You can link your existing bank and credit cards accounts to automatically import and manage your transactions. Then you can categorize your transactions by property and revenue/expense category (based on Schedule E). With your categorized transactions, Baselane presents automated summaries of your cash flow by property and category over time, helping you stay on top of your day-to-day finances.

How does Baselane keep my information secure?

Baselane takes security seriously, and we rely on industry best practices and invest heavily to keep your information safe. Baselane encrypts all your information using bank-level AES 256-bit encryption, both when it is stored in our databases and when it is used in transactions. That means your data is not revealed to either the sender or recipient of a transaction, so it remains private and secure at all times. We further double-encrypt all sensitive personal data/information and bank connection tokens using different keys, which we rotate for additional security. Our services focus solely on managing the financials of your properties, and as such we do not store any bank or card data.
