What is the vendor portal fee?

Overview

Some HOAs and apartment companies require Access Granted Systems to complete a “Vendor Application”, pay a vendor fee, or do not pay invoices via credit card or check.  These communities are invoiced a $40 administration fee plus the cost of any fee Access Granted Systems has to pay.

To keep our software prices low, we feel these admirative costs should not be paid by all clients, only the clients that require additional administrative work.

Submitting a W9 or Certificate of Insurance does not incur this fee.
