Parks Love Automated Monthly Billing

"We converted from paper billing to Camp Operator for our 60 monthly sites. The first month, we collected 95% of rent by the 5th. Previously, we were lucky to hit 80% by the 15th."

James Patterson

Owner, Lakeside RV Community, Tennessee

95% on-time collection
"The automatic late fee feature alone saved us hours of awkward conversations. Tenants know the policy, the system enforces it, and we collect what we're owed."

Monthly Billing FAQ

Everything you need to know about automating monthly RV park reservations.

How do I transition existing monthly tenants to automated billing?

We make the transition simple. First, import your tenant list with their current rates and billing dates. Then, send each tenant a secure link to add their payment method. Most parks complete the transition within 2 weeks. We can even help you communicate the change to tenants with email templates.

What payment methods can tenants use for monthly billing?

Tenants can pay with credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover) or ACH bank transfers. ACH typically has lower fees, which you can pass the savings on to tenants or keep as margin. Cards are stored securely with Stripe, so you never handle sensitive payment data.

Can I set different billing dates for different tenants?

Yes. Each tenant can have their own billing date based on their move-in date or preference. Many parks bill everyone on the 1st for simplicity, but you can accommodate tenants who prefer mid-month billing or align billing with their income schedule.

How do late fees work?

You configure your late fee policy: grace period (e.g., 5 days), late fee amount (flat or percentage), and any caps. After the grace period, the system automatically adds the late fee to the tenant's balance and notifies them. No awkward conversations needed.

What happens if a tenant's payment fails?

The system automatically retries failed payments according to your settings (e.g., retry after 3 days, then 7 days). Tenants receive automated notifications about the failure and instructions to update their payment method. You can see all failed payments on your dashboard and reach out if needed.

Can tenants view their payment history and statements?

Yes. Every tenant gets access to a self-service portal where they can view past statements, see upcoming charges, update their payment method, and download receipts. This reduces 'what do I owe?' questions significantly.

How do you handle partial payments or payment plans?

You can set up payment plans for tenants who need flexibility. Split monthly rent into weekly payments, or create custom schedules. The system tracks the plan and processes each payment automatically on the scheduled dates.

Is there a way to offer discounts for paying annually?

Absolutely. You can create annual payment options with built-in discounts (e.g., pay 11 months, get the 12th free). Tenants can choose to pay the full year upfront, and the system applies the discount automatically.

How do I handle utility billing for monthly tenants?

Camp Operator supports utility metering. Record meter readings each month, and the system calculates usage charges based on your rates. These charges can be added to the monthly rent bill or invoiced separately. Electric, water, propane, and sewer are all supported.

What reports can I run on monthly revenue?

You get comprehensive monthly reporting: total MRR (monthly recurring revenue), collection rates, late payment trends, occupancy by month, revenue per site, tenant retention rates, and more. Export to Excel or PDF for your records or accountant.
