FAQ

Questions, answered

The essentials below — for anything else, tap the chat or book a demo.

What is Locare?

Locare is a white-label platform that runs your whole property operation — leasing, rent collection, trust accounting, owner payouts, and tenant & landlord apps — all under your own brand and domain.

Who is it for?

Property agencies and landlords managing rentals in South Africa — from a handful of units to multi-branch portfolios.

How much does it cost?

Flat monthly pricing by portfolio size: Starter (70–199 units) R6,916/month, Growth (200–499 units) R14,490/month, and Scale (500+ units) R25,415/month. All prices include VAT at 15% — so Growth is R12,600 excluding VAT. Growth adds white-label, custom domain, online payments, owner portal, trust accounting, the branded rentals site, docs/e-sign and reports/API. Scale adds DebiCheck integration, which you use with your own debit-order bureau facility. Managing fewer than 70 units? We price smaller portfolios individually — talk to us. Larger or multi-country needs — an Enterprise plan.

Can I use my own brand and domain?

Yes — Locare is fully white-label. Your logo, colours and your own domain, so tenants and owners only ever see your brand.

What’s included?

Leasing & tenant onboarding, online rent collection with reconciliation, deposit trust accounting & owner payouts, an owner portal, branded tenant & landlord apps, your own rentals site, documents & e-signature, and reports with CSV/API access.

How do tenants pay rent?

Tenants pay online and payments reconcile automatically to a proper double-entry ledger, using local South African payment methods.

Do you have mobile apps?

Shared Locare tenant and landlord apps are included. A fully branded native app for your agency is available as an Enterprise add-on.

How long does it take to get started?

Most agencies are live within a week. Branding and domain go up on day one, then we load your properties, owners and active leases, and we watch your first rent run with you. An agency with nothing to migrate can be live far sooner — the data migration is what takes the time, and rushing it is how a wrong escalation date turns up in month four.

Can I migrate my existing data?

Yes — we help import your properties, units and owners during onboarding, so you’re not starting from scratch.

Is my data secure?

Each agency’s data is isolated, the platform is POPIA-aligned, and trust accounting is built to be audit-ready and PPRA-aware.
