Alto has integrated with Homebox, the fully-regulated and managed payment software that consolidates tenants rent and utility bills into one monthly transaction.
From bundling your tenants bills into one easy payment, to change of tenancy notifications, and an admin-free way to offer bills-included, Homebox solves all your utilities needs with the opportunity to earn commission in the process.
