Rento

Rent tracking for Ugandan landlords

Who has paid. Who hasn't. Every month, on your phone.

Load your units and tenants once. Rento raises the month's rent, reminds tenants by SMS on its own, issues receipts, and shows you one screen: green for paid, red for owing.

Pay by mobile money. No auto-debit, no card, no contract.

Wednesday. 6 paid, 3 still owing.

Built for the book you keep now. Only simpler.

The one screen

Open Rento and see this month: who has paid, who owes, how many days late. Nothing to compute.

Reminders that send themselves

Set the due day once. Tenants get an SMS three days before, on the day, and weekly when late. You never type a message.

Receipts in two taps

Your caretaker taps the tenant, taps Received. The receipt number is issued and the tenant gets it by SMS or WhatsApp.

A private link for every tenant

Balance, receipts and the tenancy agreement, on their phone, with no app and no password. Fewer "I paid you last week" arguments.

Caretakers see only their block

Add a caretaker per property. They record cash and add tenants there, and nothing else.

Written agreements, Uganda-ready

Generate a standard agreement that follows the Landlord and Tenant Act, 2022, or upload the one you already use.

Up and running in an afternoon.

For your first few weeks we can load your tenants for you and sit with your caretaker. You just approve.

Watch it fill in

This month's rent is raised, reminders go out, receipts are issued as money comes in.

Simple pricing. Pay by mobile money, once, for 3, 6 or 12 months.

Priced by how many units you manage, and a full tier costs under 1% of the rent Rento tracks for you. Longer blocks cost less per month: 6 months saves 10%, 12 months saves 20% . Not ready to pay today? Try it free for 30 days, long enough to see a whole rent cycle of reminders and receipts.

Optional: let tenants pay through Rento

Turn on rent collection and tenants pay by mobile money from their link. Money settles to your number less a 5% fee. Cash you record yourself is always free.

Opt-in, per landlord

Questions landlords ask.

Do my tenants need to install anything?

No. They get an SMS with a private link. It opens in any phone browser and shows their balance, receipts and agreement.

What if a tenant pays in parts?

Record each part. Rento shows the balance still owing and marks the month paid only when it is fully covered.

What happens when my block runs out?

You get an SMS at 7 days and 1 day. After a week of grace the account becomes read-only until you top up. Nothing is ever deleted.

Can my caretaker use it?

Yes. Add them under Team, pick their property, and they record cash and add tenants there only.

Is my data separate from other landlords?

Yes. Every record is tied to your account and the system filters by it on every request.

Which phones does it work on?

Any phone with a browser. It is designed for the phone first and works on a laptop too.

Stop asking who paid.

Two minutes to sign up, an afternoon to load your tenants, and from then on the answer is on your phone.
