What are the resident qualifications to use Flex?
To be eligible, residents must:
- Have no outstanding rent balance.
- Have a minimum credit score.
- Have a valid debit card that has a history of deposits (no pre-paid cards).
- Be a current resident at a property that uses an active resident portal for rent payments.
- Must have funds in their account to cover the first installment payment before the 5th of the month.
Does Flex affect a resident’s credit score?
During the application process, Flex runs a soft credit check on the resident which does not affect their credit score. As residents use Flex over time, their on-time payments may help build credit history.
What happens if a resident doesn’t pay Flex back?
Flex takes charge of all customer repayment issues internally, including write-offs. For late repayments, Flex works with residents to develop payment plans to help them get back on track.
While Flex does not continue to offer its services to users who have a past due balance when rent is due, users that repay their balance may be eligible to re-enroll. Residents whose repayment is past due more than 60 days will be reported as delinquent to the credit bureau.
Flex processes all customer repayments and write-offs internally, never coming back to the property for repayment. However, residents can be put on payment plans to help them get back on track. Once the resident has zeroed out their balance, they will be eligible to reactivate with Flex.
Is there any reason rent would not be paid after a resident is approved?
There are a few reasons why rent may not be covered for residents that are approved.
- Rent will not be paid for residents with insufficient funds to pay the initial payment. In order to process the payment, Flex requires residents to pay an initial payment of 50% of the rent balance.
- The resident has an existing balance with Flex past due from previous months.
- ACH is disabled on their account by the property and was not enabled by the 5th of the month.
How do residents contact Flex with questions?
Residents can contact customer support directly within the app or by sending an email to help@getflex.com.
What does a resident need to do if they no longer want to use Flex?
Residents can easily cancel their account in the Flex app. They can also reach out to our support team by emailing help@getflex.com. If they would like to reactivate their account at any point in the future, they can contact our support team.
Lucky Communities partnered with Flex, a simple app that pays resident's rent on the due date - first day of the month and let the residents pay it back over the rest of the month.
