When to use and what to include

Record a rent or rental payment when it is received, then generate a receipt PDF. Identify the payer and property, rental period, payment date, amount and method, transaction reference, remaining balance entered, recipient, and acknowledgment.

What to include

  • Date of payment, amount received, and the rental period the payment covers (e.g., 'March 2026 rent').
  • Tenant's full name, property address, and unit number.
  • Payment method (cash, check, money order, electronic transfer) and check or transaction number if applicable.
  • Remaining balance, if the payment is partial, and any late fees included in or added to the payment.
  • Landlord or property manager's printed name, signature, and contact information.

Common questions

What should a rental receipt identify?
Identify the payer, property and unit, rental period, payment date, amount, method, transaction reference, remaining balance entered, and the person acknowledging receipt.
Can the receipt show a partial payment?
Yes. Record the amount received, the charge or rental period it applies to, and the remaining balance entered. The receipt records the payment; it does not change the lease or waive other amounts unless the governing agreement says so.
Can I save and reuse the receipt format for another payment?
Yes. With an account, save it in your history and reuse relevant property or tenant details as a starting point, then verify the period, amount, method, and balance for the new payment.
