Product Transaction Workflow – ClientDirect On-Site & Online Payments

1. Payments are initiated by tenants and on-site staff:
   1. One-time ACH transactions are initiated by tenants online.
   2. Recurring ACH payments are automatically processed without user/tenant interaction.
   3. Checks, Money Orders, and Card Transactions are processed by on-site staff.
2. Online and on-site payments are authorized and posted to the tenant ledgers in real time.
1. A tenant can view their adjusted balance and see their payment applied the moment it happens whether they pay online or on site.
2. Site, regional, and corporate staff can see the payments online in the Payments Product as they happen throughout the day.
3. All payments are validated in real time against the tenant data to verify that a tenant is not in eviction or is marked as to not accept checks or other forms of payment.
4. ACH and Check images are batched together and transmitted to the sponsor bank for RealPage at 8:00 P.M. Central Time.
5. Batches are automatically closed within the Property Management System without any interaction from customer.
3. The payments are cleared through the appropriate network: ACH through the Federal Reserve Bank, and Checks/Money orders through bank image clearing networks.
4. Debits are charged against tenants bank accounts.
5. Funds are received in a RealPage clearing account FBO (for benefit of) RealPage clients for ACH and IRD transactions.
   1. The RealPage Payment Processing Services, Inc. (RPPSI) clearing account FBO RealPage clients is a bankruptcy remote entity (a Special Purpose Entity) established for the sole purpose of clearing funds.
      1. The funds in RPPSI are safe from any RealPage creditor claim in the unlikely event that RealPage should enter voluntarily or involuntarily into bankruptcy proceedings.
   2. Each client has unique identifiers that identify its funds when processing through the clearing account allowing funds to be settled appropriately amongst their property’s bank accounts.
6. Deposits are made to the appropriate property bank account at its existing bank. No new bank accounts are required.
7. Separate bank accounts for security deposits and rents are supported.
8. In the event that an item is returned by the tenant’s bank for any reason, the amount funded for that particular transaction will be debited from the property’s bank account and a return notification will be available on the property’s Leasing & Rents home page. Returns are received daily in the Payments Product and automatically reflected on the tenant’s ledger; any return fees and late fees will be automatically applied to the ledger based on the property’s settings within Leasing & Rents. For items that are returned for poor image quality, or because the item was processed for an incorrect amount (Money Orders, Cashier’s Checks, Business Checks, etc.), an adjustment (debit or credit) will be made to the property’s bank account for the difference in order to correct the item.
