Use case

Rent cheque tracking that catches a bounce before it becomes a crisis

Post-dated cheques are still how a large share of Dubai rent gets paid, and tracking dozens or hundreds of them by paper stub is where things quietly go wrong. Meridian tracks every cheque through its full lifecycle.

The problem

A missed cheque deposit date, or a bounced cheque nobody flagged for two weeks, turns into an arrears conversation that should have been caught immediately.

Why it matters

Cash flow forecasting is only as good as your visibility into which cheques are actually going to clear — arrears that surface late are much harder to recover.

How Meridian helps

  • Every cheque tracked from expected through received, deposited, cleared, bounced and replaced
  • Payment schedules configured per tenancy — 1, 2, 4, 6, 12 cheques or monthly
  • Arrears visibility the moment a cheque bounces, not at month-end reconciliation
  • Financial dashboards showing rent collected vs. rent due across the whole portfolio

FAQ

What payment schedules does Meridian support?

Standard Dubai cheque structures — 1, 2, 4, 6 or 12 cheques per year — plus monthly payment schedules.

Does it flag bounced cheques automatically?

Cheque status moves through a defined lifecycle including bounced and replaced, so a bounce is visible immediately rather than discovered at reconciliation.
