The platform facilitates electronic payments for credit card and ACH payments, replacing manual check payments and costly wire transfers. Payments can be initiated by the agent, home buyer, or title company. Earnestly can be integrated easily into transaction workflow platforms through Payload’s comprehensive API libraries.
“As we continue to look for ways to modernize and streamline the real estate transaction process, Earnestly addresses an important need by providing a convenient, secure, paperless solution for earnest money and other real estate payments,” said LeadingRE Vice President, Corporate Marketing Robin LaSure. “The platform is strengthened by Payload’s position as a leader in emerging financial technology and their success maintaining the industry’s highest certification for payment security.”
