Billing
Purchase a subscription per rental case, download invoices, and manage your payment method in the Stripe portal.
Locari charges per rental case — you choose a duration and tier, pay once, and Locari handles the AI-assisted rental process for that case. All payment processing runs through the Stripe billing portal.
Billing is visible to owners only. Administrators and members have no access to this area.
Common Tasks
- Purchase a subscription for a rental case
- Extend or reactivate a subscription
- Download invoices
- Change payment method
- Store company details for invoices
How to
Purchase Subscription
- Open Settings > Billing tab.
- Find the desired rental case in the Rental Cases section.
- Click Purchase subscription (or Extend / Reactivate).
- Choose a duration: 2 weeks, 1 month, or 3 months.
- Choose a tier: Basic, Plus, or Premium (all tiers include the same core features; the difference is in portal access and prioritisation).
- Enter payment details in Stripe Checkout and confirm.
The rental case is active immediately.
Example: Landlord Stefan purchases the Basic – 1 month plan for 69 € for the listing Musterstrasse 5. Locari immediately takes over applicant communication.
