# Billing & payment

> View invoices, manage payment methods, and see pending charges.

RentSmart is **free** for property managers and owners — no monthly fees, no per-listing fees, no per-lead fees. The only thing you ever pay for is [Codeboxes](/lockboxes/buy-codebox) (\$100/unit + shipping, billed immediately at purchase).

The Billing tab at [app.rentsmart.com/organization](https://app.rentsmart.com/organization) is where you manage payment methods, view invoices, and check for any pending charges.

## Four sub-tabs

### Pending Charges

Shows upcoming charges that would be billed on the 1st of the month. **For most accounts, this is empty** — RentSmart doesn't currently have monthly recurring charges. The page shows:

* **Current Balance** — usually \$0.00
* *"Next billing date"* — always shown, even with no charges
* *"You have no pending charges at this time"* when empty

The monthly billing infrastructure exists for future use; right now the section will typically be empty.

### Billing History

A table of past charges:

| Column      | What it shows                               |
| ----------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| **Date**    | When the charge happened                    |
| **Amount**  | Total billed                                |
| **Status**  | Status of the charge                        |
| **Invoice** | **View Invoice** button — opens the receipt |

Codebox purchases appear here right after they're billed.

### Payment Methods

One payment method on file at a time.

If no method is saved, click **Add Payment Method** to expand the form:

* **Cardholder Name**
* **Credit or Debit Card** — a single Stripe-style field containing card number, MM / YY, and CVC inline
* **Billing Address** — Address Line 1, Line 2, City, State, ZIP

If a method is already saved, the pencil icon opens an edit form; **Remove** deletes it.

### Shipping Address

Used as the default shipping address for [Codebox purchases](/lockboxes/buy-codebox). Fields are address line 1 / 2 / city / state / ZIP. Click **Save Shipping Address** to persist.

## Who can manage billing

<Warning>
  **Editors have full billing access**, including adding, editing, and removing payment methods. If you don't want a staff member to manage payments, invite them as a Viewer.
</Warning>

Viewers can see all billing data but can't change anything.

## When am I charged?

The only time you're ever charged through RentSmart:

* **Codebox purchase** — \$100 per unit + shipping, billed **immediately** at order time. Order details appear in Billing History right away.

[Linking an existing lockbox](/lockboxes/link-existing) is always **free** — no fees.
