What is Split Pay and how does it work with my portal, lender, or servicer?

Split Pay is a service that splits your monthly rent, mortgage, or car loan payment into two smaller payments instead of one big one — and it works with your existing portal, lender, or servicer without changing anything on their end.

The basics:

  • Your monthly payment gets split into two: one on payment day, one ~14 days later

  • Your landlord, lender, or servicer still receives the full amount on time, every month

  • You add Split Pay account and routing numbers to your portal, lender, or servicer as a payment method (just like adding any bank account)

  • They pull payment from those numbers when your bill is due

  • Split Pay covers the full amount upfront, then you pay us back in two installments

Why it works with any portal, lender, or servicer:

To them, Split Pay looks like a bank account. You add account and routing numbers as a payment method, and they use them when your bill is due. They don't need to integrate with us, partner with us, or even know who we are.

What they see:

  • A payment method on file (looks like a bank account, source bank: Evolve Bank & Trust)

  • A full payment on the due date

What you see:

  • Two charges on your debit card per month: one on payment day (first Split Pay payment), one ~14 days later (second Split Pay payment)

  • Each charge covers half (or a smaller portion that grows over time) of your monthly payment

  • You can manage everything in your Split Pay account

What your landlord, lender, or servicer sees:

  • Full payment received, on time

  • That's it — they don't need to do anything different

A few things to know:

  • Most portals, lenders, and servicers work — Yardi, RealPage, Entrata, RentCafe, Buildium, AppFolio, and most others for rent. Major mortgage servicers and auto loan servicers also work. A few (like Zillow Rental Portal) don't accept payments from us.

  • You don't need to ask their permission — Split Pay is a personal choice on your end.

  • There's no impact to your credit score to apply, and approval is fast.
