Professional landlords provide receipts. Landager makes this effortless with a built-in receipt sharing capability that lets you send a clean payment confirmation to the tenant.

How to Share a Receipt

  1. Navigate to the specific Payment Receipt view.
  2. Click the "Share Receipt" button.
  3. The system generates a shareable format of the receipt (a formatted summary or downloadable document).
  4. You can then:
    • Copy the receipt data and paste it into an email.
    • Download it and attach it to a message manually.
    • Print it and hand the physical copy to the tenant.

What the Shared Receipt Includes

The tenant-facing receipt includes only the information they need to verify:

  • Your Property Management Name (from your profile)
  • Tenant Name and Unit Address
  • Payment Amount Received
  • Date Payment Was Made
  • Payment Method Used
  • Payment Status (Paid, Partial, etc.)

[!NOTE] Private internal notes you added to the payment (e.g., "Tenant was 5 days late, consider not renewing") are not included in the shared receipt. Only factual transaction data is shared.

Why Share Receipts?

1. Building Professional Trust

Tenants who receive receipts feel their payments are officially documented. This builds trust and reduces "he said, she said" disputes.

2. Legal Protection

In many jurisdictions, landlords are legally required to provide written receipts upon request, especially for cash payments. By sharing receipts proactively, you stay ahead of compliance requirements.

3. Tenant Record-Keeping

Your tenants need proof of rent payments for their own tax deductions, rental history verification, and future apartment applications. Providing receipts promptly makes you a preferred landlord.
