Ready to run your PG with less chaos?
Marketplace payment gateways for PG rent collection
TrackMyPG’s Gateway screen is where owners connect supported gateways (e.g. Razorpay, PayU, Cashfree, Easebuzz in the product registry) per PG, complete marketplace onboarding, and enable online rent checkout against real invoices.
- Razorpay
- PayU
- Per-PG onboarding
- Invoice-linked checkout
Each PG has its own gateway state: not connected, pending approval, or active. Until a gateway is active and settlement-ready for that property, tenants continue with mark-paid flows for cash or bank transfers.

- + more in registry
- Per-PG
- merchant onboarding
- Invoice-linked
- online checkout
- Owner-led
- activation control
The problem
What PG owners struggle with today
Most PG operators still coordinate tenants, rent, and documents across Excel, WhatsApp, and paper registers. That works until bed count, staff handovers, or month-end reconciliation expose gaps nobody can audit quickly.
- Excel sheets and WhatsApp threads become the unofficial ledger
- Duplicate tenant rows after busy move-in weekends
- ID copies and agreements scattered across phones and folders
- Payment screenshots without invoice IDs at month-end
- Room swaps that never update the “master” occupancy tab
- Owners cannot see outstanding rent without calling the desk
