Prohibits residential landlord from imposing certain surcharges for rent payments.

This New Jersey bill prohibits residential landlords from charging tenants more than $5 per month for using online payment methods to pay rent. Landlords must cover any fees exceeding $5 or reimburse tenants within 10 days, and provide itemized receipts showing compliance with the $5 limit. Violations result in $1,000 penalties per offense, plus attorney fees and other costs that tenants can recover through a private lawsuit. The law applies to all residential landlords and tenants using online rent payment systems in New Jersey. It aims to prevent excessive fees that disproportionately impact low-income and fixed-income renters.
