Simple and secure payments, built for the home.

Make any home payment — from earnest money and cash to close to your utilities and property taxes.

Get started

The safest way to make the biggest purchase of your life.

Scammers target homebuyers to try and trick them into wiring money to the wrong bank account. In Castle, every payment is securely routed between pre-verified accounts so wire instructions are never shared and there’s no opportunity for bad actors to intercept your funds.

You could pay with a wire transfer...

Funds are sent to any account number entered, with no pre-verification or fraud checks
One typo can accidentally send funds to the wrong account
Cannot be reversed

Or you could use Castle.

No wires and no wire instructions for fraudsters to fake
No account numbers to type, so no typos
Can be reversed in the event of unauthorized payment

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

How did Castle start?

Castle was born out of our own experiences as homeowners. Every home bill came with the question: “How will you pay?” Check? Cash? Wire? Outdated payment portal? Castle is our opportunity to build the tools that we wish existed for ourselves and for other homeowners.

Where can I use Castle?

Anywhere in the United States. Castle is available in all 50 states.

How does Castle protect me from wire fraud?

Castle securely routes your funds to a pre-verified escrow account so you never have to send a wire. That means you never have to worry about getting fraudulent wire instructions or accidentally typing in the wrong account number. It also means you don’t need to make a trip to the bank!
