Rent receipts, payment methods & cash in Minnesota
A landlord who receives rent in cash must give a written receipt. From August 1, 2026, if a landlord uses a digital payment platform, the landlord must offer a free alternative way to pay when the platform is not working, and a violation is a defense to an eviction for nonpayment.
