Do tenants get a receipt when they pay rent?

Online rent payments show in the tenant portal instead of an emailed receipt. You can email a receipt for any payment you log, or from Payment History.

Written by Matt Hardy

When a tenant pays rent online through Landlord Studio, the payment appears in their payment history in the tenant portal, which is their record of it. Landlord Studio does not email a separate receipt for online payments. If your tenant wants an emailed receipt, you can send one from Payment History. For rent paid another way, such as cash or check, turn on "Send Receipt" when you log the payment and the tenant gets an email receipt, with you copied in.
