Banking built for your real estate business

If you’re in the short- or long-term rental business, Relay’s online banking and money management platform will help you get crystal clear on what you’re earning, spending and saving.

Why Relay

Built for Growing Businesses

Get unparalleled clarity into operating expenses, cash flow and every transaction.

  • Open up to 20 individual business checking accounts

  • Issue 50 virtual or physical Visa® debit cards to your team

  • Collect payments from PayPal, Stripe, Square and more

  • Payments via ACH transfers, check and wire

  • Schedule recurring payments to put expenses on autopilot

  • Get personalized customer support when you need it

One of my favorite features about Relay is the ability to transfer to multiple accounts at the same time. I go into Relay, I plug in the percentages of how much I wanted to transfer and it can automatically do that every single month. So it's been a big time saver for us.
