What card would you use? Thoughts?
Ask your landlord if they accept credit cards and just pay through them. My apartment accepts credit cards and we can pay online. One of the reasons I love staying here. However, if you can, perhaps you can move out to another apartment complex that accepts credit cards?
If you have credit card concierge services (MasterCard's World Elite, AMEX , etc) just fill out an online form for them and they will contact several apartment complexes in your area and see what their lowest rate is AND if they accept credit card payments. Everything is negotiable....you could end up getting into a better apartment than you have now AND cheaper rent AND one that accepts credit cards.
