Baselane is not a viable option for commercial landlords Baselane is below average for rent collection and clears payments at the speed of 1980. I have had some payments take 7 days to clear, plus an additional day to actually show up in my checking account! The service I was using prior to Baselane was clearing rent payments in 3 days maximum, most of the time in 1-2 days. I will be returning to the prior service. The banking is a bit of a scam; they hook you with a high APY only to lower it below industry standards a month later. They also have very low deposit maximums - $5k. You have to ask for an override to make deposits above this amount....very inconvenient.

Dishonest, fraudulent, and useless Baselane refused to honor the terms and conditions of their own welcome bonus promotion I qualified and met the criteria for, and then when I contacted customer service asking for the bonus I was owed and detailing with screenshots and timelines they denied having the bonus up on their website, blaming a 'cache' issue, despite my time-stamped screenshots of the promotion being live on their website. They then got my account confused with another account, and shared private account information and screenshots with me from someone else's account (!) including transactions and acct numbers. Unbelievable. I told them that was unacceptable to not honor their own bonus and they replied that it was unfortunate that I was "wasting their time" with my inquiry. Take your money elsewhere. Updated to add: the "facts" they responded with are inaccurate and I have proof from the fine print of their website on 12/22/23 that that is the case. Their attempt to preserve their reputation through accusing customers of gaming the promotion they rightfully qualified for and met the criteria for is unfortunate, especially for an institution that claims to be customer-centric. They made no attempt to resolve the situation with integrity.

High yield account but poor customer service and fund transfer technology Baselane appeared to have all the right features for a landlord: rent collection, credit checks, even loans. Their interest-bearing checking account was also a nice perk. However, that is not work much if you cannot even fund the account. It's been over 3 weeks since I opened my account but after multiple attempts to contact their customer service, I still could not get my issue resolved. I even scheduled 2 live customer service calls but both times the representative did not call me! In short, high interest checking accounts and useful landlord features are the positives. But the negatives are their customer service and fund transfer technology, which falls short of expectations.

It is one of the best compared to other… It is one of the best compared to other free tools for landlords, but it can be number one worldwide if Baselane stays free and keeps adding more features every month.

Rental Management I run my entire management through Baselane. The three times I needed answers from customer service, they were prompt to solve my problems. I signed up mostly to collect rent digitally, which provides the tenants with their login and choice of payments. Also, the checking account has a competitive APY over other business banks. The function I didn't realize I needed was the cash flow and spending analytics by connecting other financial institutions, which then can be exported for a tax preparer.
