Case Study: OKUPIED achieves simplified, secure, and fast rent collection for individual landlords with Dwolla

How OKUPIED uses Dwolla’s platform to reimagine rent collection for individual landlords

OKUPIED, a property-management app for individual landlords, faced slow adoption of online rent payments because of security concerns, a lack of tools tailored to small landlords, and the scarcity of affordable technology. To address this, OKUPIED partnered with Dwolla and integrated Dwolla’s bank-to-bank payment platform (with Plaid for account verification) to offer a simple, secure rent-collection option within its app.

By using Dwolla, OKUPIED enabled one-tap, secure bank transfers through a tenant web portal, making rent payments reliable and efficient—transactions take less than a minute for both landlords and tenants. The Dwolla integration streamlined rent collection and related property-management tasks, improved the user experience, and supported OKUPIED’s goal of delivering a cost-effective solution for individual landlords.
