Client testimonial

A concrete migration, in numbers

The experience of a landlord who switched from Smovin to BailBelgique — with before / after numbers.

“
I liked Smovin for tracking my rental income, but I was frustrated by having to use a notary for every new lease and meeting tenants in person to sign. With BailBelgique, I create the lease, my tenant signs via itsme, and MyRent registration happens automatically. The financial tracking is there too — I did not lose anything by switching.

Frequently asked questions

Everything about migrating from Smovin

Does Smovin allow you to create a lease online?
No. Smovin does not offer a lease generator. The platform focuses on rent tracking and financial management, but you need to create your leases through other means (notary, paper template).
Does Smovin offer electronic signature?
No. Smovin does not include integrated electronic signature (itsme or eID). Lease signing must happen outside the platform.
Is Smovin cheaper than BailBelgique?
Smovin offers a limited free plan and paid plans from 9.90 EUR/month. BailBelgique starts at 3.90 EUR/month and includes lease creation, electronic signature and regional annexes — features that Smovin does not offer at any price point.
Can I use both Smovin and BailBelgique?
Technically yes, but it creates double data entry and fragmented workflows. BailBelgique covers everything Smovin does (rent tracking, indexation) plus everything it does not (lease creation, signature, compliance). One tool is simpler and cheaper.
