Why agents switch to Propora
Collect rent. Keep the percentage.
Propora runs your rentals end to end: leases, invoices, online payments, maintenance and listings. One flat monthly fee in Rands. No cut of your rent roll, no application fee, no lock in contract.
- No application fee
- Month to month
- Priced in Rands
Flat fee, not a cut of rent
One fixed monthly price in Rands. Take your rent roll from R200k to R20m and your Propora bill stays exactly the same.
Invoices that send themselves
Recurring rent invoices, utilities, late fees and reminders go out on schedule. No more month end spreadsheet marathons.
Rent paid straight to you
Tenants pay by card, instant EFT and more through PayFast or Paystack. Money settles to your bank, not into a middleman's float.
Leases signed in minutes
Send lease agreements for e-signature and keep the signed copy on the tenant file, ready for any dispute.

Flat fee vs percentage of rent
Percentage platforms grow their bill with your rent roll. We don't.
