Payments

What it shows

Here you can see all payments for rent and invoices paid by you, and all refunds paid to you.

You will also be able to see the details of each transaction, such as the Transaction Id, and the paid to dates relating to the selected payment.

  • Use the Date Filter to search for transactions made in a specific time period

  • Selecting the Custom option will allow you select a specific date range for your search

  • Click on Save Date Filter to view transactions within the date filter range

  • To go back to viewing all transactions, click on Reset Date Filter


What transactions can you see

In this screen you will be able to see all payments and funds received relating to your profile only. This means that if there are other tenants living at the same property and making payments, or receiving refunds, you will only be able to see your payments and refunds, and not the payments made by other tenants, or refunds paid to other tenants.


What the statuses mean

Pending: The payment has been processed and is pending standard banking clearance times

Failed: The payment has dishonoured. This can be due to a number of reasons:

  • Were the account details provided correct or entered correctly?

  • Have you checked your account to confirm there are sufficient funds for the amount being debited?

  • Have you contacted your bank to confirm the account being debited is able to be debited?

No status chip indicates that the transaction has cleared.


Rent payment options

โš ๏ธ Not all rent payment options are available to all Real Estate agencies that use Kolmeo, check with your property manager which ones they have available to you.

Direct debit

You will need to contact your property manager for a copy of their direct debit form. Once the form is completed, your property manager will set up the Direct Debit for you.

Debit now

You can manage debit now payments using Kolmeo. Once your property manager has set your payment method as debit now, you can add & remove bank accounts and pay your rent your way and in your own time in line with your lease.

Paycode

Your property manager can enable Paycode for you, once available you can log into your Kolmeo account and get the payment details. Paycode is a BSB and account number which you can use in your internet banking to transfer funds towards rent.
