This Settlement resolves litigation concerning alleged negligence of eRentPayment, LLC (“eRent”) and Base Commerce, LLC (d/b/a Check Commerce) in the management of funds received from tenants intended for Plaintiffs (the “Landlords”) in the case entitled Todd Wasulko, et al. v. eRentPayment, LLC, et al. v. Base Commerce d/b/a CheckCommerce, Case No. 2017-cv-031088 (the “Lawsuit”).

- The Settlement became final as of December 14, 2020.
- Settlement payments will be issued no later than March 14, 2021.
This Settlement is for eRent customers that

- whose tenant(s) made a payment using eRent’s website between October 3, 2017 and October 12, 2017 (the “Class Period”) or who made payments to tenant(s) using eRent’s website during the Class Period; and
- did not receive the payment made by the tenant or the tenant did not receive the payment made by the eRent customer.
What is the Lawsuit about?
Plaintiffs have asserted claims alleging that Defendants eRent and Check Commerce are liable for a failure to fund rental payments from tenants to the Landlords or payments from Landlords to tenants directed through eRent’s website between October 3, 2017 and October 12, 2017. eRent and Check Commerce each deny any liability and have compelling legal defenses, including that any failure to transfer funds resulted from the conduct of a bankrupt non-party, eCHECKit.
Are you a member of the Settlement Class?
The “Settlement Class” consists of any eRent customers that
- agreed to utilize eRent’s online rental payment-collection service to receive or process payments;
- whose tenant(s) made a payment using eRent’s website between October 3, 2017 and October 12, 2017 (the “Class Period”) or who made payments to tenant(s) using eRent’s website during the Class Period; and
- did not receive the payment made by the tenant or the tenant did not receive the payment made by the eRent customer.
You are not a member of the Settlement Class if your tenants did not make any payments through eRent’s website; or if your tenants initially submitted payment through eRent’s website between October 3, 2017 and October 12, 2017, but then had their payment returned to them by reversing the transaction.
You are not a member of the Settlement Class if you utilized eRent’s online rental payment services as a tenant and not as a landlord.
