Rent, for most, is the single biggest payment people make in a month. According to Vancouverite Philipp Postrehovsky, it’s a $450 billion market, and some say it’s gone undisrupted for far too long. That’s why Postrehovsky co-founded RentMoola, an online global payment network, to improve the rent and condo fee payment process. “If you give someone a tool that’s convenient, they will use it,” says Postrehovsky. “I’ve always been a believer in simplifying your life with online technology.” Many of RentMoola’s customers, including students, have rarely, if ever, used a cheque book. For this reason and more, Postrehovsky says banks are starting to sing to the fintech tune and partner with these innovative companies to improve customer experiences like paying rent. In this week’s #StartupPodcast with Rivers Corbett, Philipp dives into Canada’s fintech scene, reflects on how entrepreneurs are changing the future of banking, and discusses the impact mobile payments can have on the rent-by-check-tradition.
