When setting up PAD payments for the first time, we recommend starting the process at least 8 business days before your rent is due. This gives you plenty of time to complete all the necessary steps, like securely sharing your payment details with your landlord and completing any required verifications.
If your landlord needs to verify your bank account through micro-deposits (see more here), this lead time ensures everything’s ready to go, so your rent payment goes through smoothly and on time.
