Best ePayment / ACH service for Weekly rentals
Can anyone recommend a good service for invoicing tenants for weekly vacation rentals and allowing them to pay via check. The reason I mention that these are weekly rentals where my friend doesnt need a tenant management portal as he will have mostly one time tenants. We were going to use quickbooks for the payments as that is what I use but for new clients hey charge a 1% fee for paying via ACH rather then a .50 fixed payment. There is a $10 cap which wouldn't be awful if he just sent one invoice per customer but payments are often broken down in to 2 or 3 payments over the winter season so we are looking at fees that could be $20-$30 per week of rent. Rents are high, over $7500 a week so the best solution is likely a cost not a percentage based solution.
any ideas?

paypal fees are expensive unless the person sends as 'fiends and family.' With paypal fiends and family often associated with scammers I wanted to stay away from that.
Zelle would be fine if the tenant knew how to use and their bank supported it. I like the idea of starting with a payment request, I have BOA (a Zelle partner) so fired up the app and tried to request money from my son and just got errors that I cant complete the request. so not sure how well zelle works if the person you are requesting from has never used zelle before.
