Offering tenants a discount if they pay rent early or on time, and the tenants know about this deal.
For example:
If rent is $1000, then if they pay early or on time then they pay $950 for a $50 discount. If they do not pay early, then they pay the full $1000.
Payment discounts can be setup by adding a negative line item to the scheduled transaction, and an automatic action can be setup to delete the discount when the payment is overdue.
The automatic action can be set through the settings page. Set up the action to trigger "When the due date for an invoice is overdue by x amount of days". A condition should be set up to look for an invoice for a certain item ( e.g 'prompt fee discount'). Set the event to "delete matching line items", and this action will delete the selected line items from the invoice, when the invoice is overdue.
Payments made through Forte will take 3-5 business days to process, but the invoice will be marked as paid in the system as soon as the payment is made. So you still know if they paid ealry/on time, even though the payment is still being processed.
