Stake: Rent with a Return 4+

I love the fact that I can earn a cash reward for paying my rent on time. This is my first time using this app and I’m glad I did. I had accumulated an amount that ended up being what I needed to help cover a bill. I was able to have it transferred directly to my bank account, which was very easy and convenient.

Using this app because of my apartment. My apartments offered 2 months free at move in. But you can only receive the 2 months free if you are using this app. But the scam is that they won’t be giving you your month back unless you hound and hound and jump through hoops. It shouldn’t be that hard if that was the agreement. I contact support over and over and they only have 3 people that do the support. They are all horrible and don’t know what they are doing. Maybe besides Micheal. The contact phone number never works so don’t even bother with that. Just on top of that all the transferring time for my money to get from my bank to stake is sooooooo long I’ve never seen a deposit take so long to get to another account. Most of the time it won’t even deposit into my account before the first and I already received a late rent fee because of this app taking so long. I’ve never been late on rent in 7 years only using this app I was.

*** APARTMENT COMPLEX***
Please avoid for the sake of your residents

After paying my rent with this app for most of the past seven months at my apartments recommendation I give up. The app disconnects from your bank account constantly and sends you a notification about how they do this periodically to blah blah blah but it’s always about a day after I re enter it. I’ve been late on rent while waiting for this app to work. It makes me stressed every month that something is going to go wrong again and I do not have the means to pay from another account when this app becomes a nightmare. The less than $40 I’ve gotten each month for using it is just not worth the constant worrying and fighting with the app. It’s also very buggy, for example I’ll get a notification from the app and instead of a single notification I’ll get six of the same exact notification. Pretty disappointing.
