Flex splits your bills into smaller, stress-free payments throughout the month. Start today with your rent bill!
About us
Flex is a simple app that’s changing the way the world pays and collects rent. Our technology makes the 1st of the month easy for renters and properties. For renters, we pay the rent on the 1st and let you pay it back when it works better for your budget. We help you buy some time (or whatever else you’re eyeing). For properties, we help you collect more and stress less. And we do the previously impossible by turning rent collection into a marketable amenity. WHAT WE STAND FOR •We believe you should be able to choose when you pay your bills. The flexibility of buy-now-pay-later has forever changed the way the world makes purchases. We believe the same flexibility should be available for one of life’s #1 expenses: rent. •We believe in the win-win. We like helping people keep commitments. With our technology, properties get the rent and renters get the time. The future is flexible. •We believe in the end of rent regret. Sharing human spaces used to be easier. But then payment came into the picture and rent regret was born. The worst part of rent regret is that it separates us from each other. We’re committed to solving rent regret forever.

When rent is due on the 1st but payday isn't until the 15th, renters get stuck with late fees and property managers deal with bad debt. It's a timing problem that affects millions of people. Flex built their Flexible Rent solution to fix this mismatch, giving renters a line of credit to pay rent on time while they repay on their own schedule. Simple concept, but it required payments infrastructure that could handle complexity. The challenge: transaction spikes at the beginning of every month, real-time fraud protection, instant card issuance, and precise spending controls. All while keeping the experience seamless for renters. Partnering with Lithic to power their product, Flex has helped millions of renters avoid late fees and stress while reducing vacancy rates for property managers. Good payments infrastructure doesn't just process transactions, it unlocks entirely new ways to solve real problems. Read more - link in the comments!

Thank you to MRI Software, and our friend Cederick Johnson, for partnering with Flex as we strive together towards a greater resident and property experience. Collaboration (and hydration) is the key to accelerating progress. We’re looking forward to seeing how we continue to shape the future together.
Cederick Johnson took to the expo floor last week at #Apartmentalize and stopped to speak to a few of our partners. The expo floor is always a highlight of the show, and this year was no different! Brad Robins with Flex explained how they allow renters the flexibility to pay their rent and moving costs over a period of time. Oh, and they showed us their IV Drip area! Lily Liu with Piñata Rent, our newest partner, described how renters can increase their credit score and unlock other great rewards by paying their rent on time! Abigail N. with Zego showed us their e-bike giveaway and spoke about their lasting partnership with us! What an amazing conference! #Apartmentalize2025 #MRISoftware #PropTech #Multifamily National Apartment Association (Naahq)

Over the past few weeks, we’ve shared how Flex governs its models, audits for fairness, and measures real-world impact. But the work doesn’t stop there. In part six of our Fair Lending in the AI Era series, I outline a call to action: it’s time for #fintech to move from good intentions to shared standards. What that means: • Fairness audits that are regular, independent, and transparent • Reporting on both inputs and outcomes—not just model accuracy • Governance teams that span compliance, credit, data, and legal • Accountability for long-term financial outcomes—not just approval rates • Public-private collaboration to define the next generation of lending oversight We’re not starting from scratch. As FairPlay AI’s AI Exam Readiness Handbook shows, the building blocks are already here—if we choose to act. At Flex, we’re committed to this work: • Building with RegFlex • Auditing with FairPlay • Measuring renter outcomes at scale • Staying engaged with regulators and advocacy partners And helping shape the infrastructure for tomorrow’s expectations.

A model can appear fair. But are the outcomes? In part five of our Fair Lending in the AI Era series, I share how we’re measuring the real-world impact of Flex—not just model performance, but what happens after a decision is made. We’re focused on: • Eviction risk and rent payment stability • Financial resilience and credit health • Use of high-cost or predatory credit alternatives We’re not guessing. We’re measuring—using leveraging frameworks from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and drawing from real data across 8M+ rental units and every major property management software platform. Because fairness isn’t just about what’s inside the model. It’s about what happens next. As I said during the National Community Reinvestment Coalition - NCRC panel: “This isn’t a PR exercise. We’re surfacing the wins—and the gaps.” Read the full post:
