How to choose

Six questions before you choose

The best software is the one that removes work in your specific case. Check these points on each tool's website.

  • Who issues the AT receipts?

    Some apps issue the electronic rent receipt on the Portal das Finanças; others only produce a payment receipt and you still submit it yourself.

  • How is the rent collected?

    SEPA Direct Debit collects on its own and flags late payments. Without it, you confirm each payment by hand or from the bank statement.

  • Lease and signature

    Check that the lease follows the NRAU and whether e-signature is included in your plan or charged separately.

  • Real total price

    Compare including VAT, sign-up fees, per-rent fees and the number of properties included, not just the entry price.

  • Tenant and accountant portals

    A portal avoids email back-and-forth for receipts and documents; accountant access makes the Anexo F easier.

  • Can your data leave with you?

    Make sure you can import your current portfolio (Excel, CSV) and export everything if you ever switch tools.

FAQ

Landlord software, in questions

What is the best landlord software in Portugal?

It depends on your profile. For a private landlord who wants AT receipts and rent collected without lifting a finger, Aluseg is the most complete option (free for 1 property, Essential at €7/month or €60/year, VAT included). Rentila is a mature European platform; RendaOK and Arrendei are simple Portuguese options. For management companies, Improxy Gesar communicates with the Tax Authority, from €40/month + VAT.

Is there free software to manage rentals in Portugal?

Yes. Aluseg, Rentila, RendaOK, Arrendei and Rentos have a free plan for 1 property, and Rentger is free up to 9 properties. Aluseg's free plan includes the NRAU lease, documents, the tenant file, the tenant portal and 1 solvency check per year; AT receipts and SEPA collection need a paid plan.

Which apps issue electronic rent receipts with the AT?

Aluseg automatically issues the electronic rent receipt and registers the lease with the AT on the Essential and Expert plans. Improxy Gesar mentions Tax Authority communication and bulk receipts. RendaOK and Arrendei state on their websites that they do not submit to the AT: you still issue the receipt yourself.

Which apps collect rent by Direct Debit?

Aluseg collects rent by SEPA Direct Debit on paid plans, with a 1% fee per rent (min. €0.50, max. €3); the money goes straight from the tenant's account to the landlord's. RendaOK announces Direct Debit as coming soon. TSR Rendas does Direct Debit, but for institutions.

Can I switch software without losing my data?

Yes, if your current tool exports the data. Aluseg imports a portfolio from Excel, CSV or Rentila, reads signed leases in PDF and exports everything as a ZIP on every plan. See migrate from Rentila or Excel.

What about agencies and property managers?

Improxy Gesar (from €40/month + VAT), Rentos and Homming are built for professionals, and RendaOK has an Agency plan at €99.90/month. Aluseg has Pro plans from €29/month + VAT, with 3 months free: see the agency pricing.
