Monthly rental plus the bits that change.
Collected on one mandate.
Recurv bills a storage tenant's full monthly charge, rental plus insurance, access fees, late fees, and size upgrades, on a single mandate and runs the collection automatically. Self-storage billing is rarely just the monthly rental: these add-ons move the total amount every cycle, and most facilities still bill them as separate manual steps. With everything on one mandate, your ops team spends Mondays following up with the few tenants who need a call, not building the invoice for everyone else.

WHERE STORAGE BILLING BREAKS
Rental is simple. Everything else isn't.
Six places SA storage operators lose time and revenue every month.
Rental plus add-ons means billing in pieces
Monthly rental, insurance, access fees, late fees, and size upgrades often get billed through separate, manual steps.
RECURV ·
One mandate bills the rental and every add-on together, with the amount adjusted per cycle.
Mondays go to chasing the same defaulters
Ops teams spend recurring time each week following up on the same accounts before the lien process becomes the only option.
RECURV ·
See who failed to pay and why the moment it happens, before it becomes a lien case.
Month-end recon splits occupancy from ancillary revenue by hand
Owners want rental revenue reported separately from insurance, fees, and upgrades, and building that view manually takes real time.
RECURV ·
Automatic reconciliation gives a clean split between rental and ancillary revenue every month.
New tenants sign paper mandates at the front desk
Paper-based sign-up slows move-in and creates a mandate-filing problem down the line.
RECURV ·
Tenants sign a digital mandate on the spot, and billing starts the same day.
Card-on-file billing fails more than it should
Expired cards and declines interrupt monthly rental collection more often than a debit-order mandate would.
RECURV ·
EFT debit-order mandates are more reliable for recurring monthly rental than card-on-file.
The bank's minimum locks out smaller facilities
Bank debit-order portals often require a large deposit or annual commitment that a 50-unit independent facility can't justify.
RECURV ·
Recurv starts at a low monthly cost with no annual lock-in.
