MeterEase is $14/month (Starter, up to 4 units), $34/month (Growth, up to about 20 units) or $69/month (Portfolio, up to 50 units, then $1.50 per unit over 50), with a 7-day Growth trial. A card is required. See MeterEase pricing.

Where DoorLoop is the better fit

  • A complete platform: accounting, rent collection, maintenance, portals and leasing in one place.
  • Tenants pay online, and CAM charges and true-ups are built in.
  • If you need a full property management system, DoorLoop is one; MeterEase is not.

How MeterEase is different

  • MeterEase does one job, the utility bill-back, for $14 to $69 a month, versus DoorLoop’s $199 minimum.
  • It reads the master utility bill and splits it by percent, square footage, bedrooms or occupants, with a vacancy rule, then emails each tenant the source bill.
  • Already on DoorLoop? MeterEase can push charges to DoorLoop on Growth and Portfolio.

MeterEase is a math helper, not legal advice. You choose the split method and own the lease terms. Try thefree RUBS calculator first, or read what RUBS is.

Run this split every month without the spreadsheet

MeterEase reads the master bill PDF, applies your method and vacancy rule, and emails each tenant their share with the source bill attached, after you check the numbers. Plans start at $14/month.
