Crowded is a financial platform that offers HOAs an easy way to collect, spend and manage money online.
With Crowded, you can avoid constantly transferring funds between payment apps and banks to access your HOA’s money. Utilizing embedded finances, Crowded enables you to bank, collect, and spend with just one platform.
We charge little to no fees.
When collecting funds through Crowded, you’ll have the flexibility to decide whether to cover processing fees or let your payers handle them. When we do charge fees, they are fair and competitive with industry standards.
Venmo & Paypal? Great for friends, not for your HOA. Here’s why Crowded is the better app for collecting dues & for events:
Crowded accounts are free to set up – we have no minimum balances or subscription fees.
What do we charge for?
When collecting payments, we charge 2.99% of the collection amount if paid by card and the lesser of 2.99% or $5 for ACH payments.
You can always choose whether you want to cover these fees or ask your payers to handle them.
