With PayProp, your trust account is wired into the SA banking system, meaning all incoming payments on your entire rental portfolio reflect as actual payments. And that means up-to-date trust accounts and no hold-ups due to reconciliation backlogs. As a result, these trusted payments can be automatically matched to the right payers, allocated to the right properties, and paid out to the right beneficiaries according to rules you set up when the landlord or property is added – all in a few minutes daily.

Thanks to bank integration, PayProp also offers fantastic real-time visibility via a high-level dashboard with all your properties, payments in and out, income and more. At the touch of a button, users can see which stage of the payment cycle their clients’ money is at, and the platform offers an automated and date-stamped audit log of each transaction. The log is automatically recorded and cannot be changed or deleted, allowing users to search transactions long after they’ve been made.

PayProp has processed over R73.3 billion in trust money and has not once been involved in any loss of trust funds. Through its partnerships with leading banks such as Absa in South Africa, clients can rely on bank-grade payment security and leading information security. Data is stored safely and encrypted at rest and when transferred – a necessity with the continued increase in cybercrime.

Another factor that plays a part in PayProp’s security are its strategies to combat ‘phishing’ attempts that prey on employees. On the PayProp platform, as mentioned above, all outgoing payments are based on rules set by you, the agent, which means that no employee can manually direct payments into a non-approved beneficiary account without an indelible audit trail. Duties are split between teams so that no one person carries out a transaction from start to finish, and all trust account activity can be set to require sign-off from two people.

PayProp’s security systems don’t just offer peace of mind to you – they also offer it to your clients. The PayProp Owner app enables landlords to check their portfolio in real time to keep an eye on their income, see if the rent has been paid, and check the status of third-party payments. In the same vein, the PayProp Tenant portal lets tenants see their current and historic invoices and statements, and offers a degree of self-service (including instant EFT payments) that promotes end-user satisfaction and financial responsibility.
