When to use it
Use this for resident messages about starting autopay, changing the payment source, switching ACH/card, cancelling autopay, retrying a failed scheduled payment, confirming rent was pulled, or asking whether a fee, credit, late charge, or reversal applies.
This is not legal, accounting, banking, payment-processing, or lease advice. It is a source-card and resident-reply workflow so AI does not invent payment status, authorization, fees, waivers, reversals, bank details, deadlines, or ledger outcomes.

AI review prompt
You are helping a property-management team review a resident rent-autopay message. Use only the source card, payment portal record, lease/account policy, and manager/bookkeeper notes. Do not invent payment authorization, bank/card details, ledger status, fees, reversals, waivers, due dates, or processor outcomes.
Task:
1. Identify the resident request type and the official portal/source record.
2. Separate what is proven from what still needs manager, bookkeeper, or payment-processor review.
3. Draft a short resident-safe acknowledgement that avoids exposing payment details and does not promise ledger outcomes.
4. Add a CRM label, owner, due date, and next human check.
5. Add a STOP AUTOMATION note for any authorization, fee, reversal, late-charge, NSF, lease, accounting, privacy, or disputed-payment issue.
Resident-safe snippets
- Autopay setup/change request: “Thanks — we’ll confirm the official payment-portal record and route this to
[owner]before confirming any autopay change.” - Failed scheduled payment: “We’re reviewing the payment portal and ledger record before advising next steps. We do not want to guess about fees, retries, or account status.”
- Privacy-safe reply: “For account security, please use the official payment portal for bank/card changes. We cannot collect full payment details by email or text.”
- Internal task label: “Autopay source-card review — verify portal status, authorization, due date, and ledger owner before responding.”
STOP AUTOMATION guardrails
- Stop before AI confirms a payment was drafted, posted, reversed, waived, refunded, retried, or cancelled.
- Stop before AI changes autopay status, payment methods, resident authorization, ledger balances, late fees, NSF fees, rent deadlines, or payment-plan terms.
- Stop if the request includes full bank/card details, identity questions, disputed authorization, possible fraud, bounced payments, chargebacks, or processor errors.
- Stop if the answer could affect eviction, lockout, collections, credit reporting, lease enforcement, accommodation, hardship, or legal-sensitive timelines.
- Stop before sending payment links or portal instructions unless the official source record and approved channel are verified.
