An invoice, a link to pay it, and the methods behind

What you can send and how it gets paid: invoices, payment links by text or email, and the methods underneath โ€” card, bank transfer, recurring and auto-billing.

What it does

What it does

The invoice carries its own payment link

The customer taps and pays on their phone. Nothing to print, no bank details typed into a text message.

Card and bank transfer both work

Card for speed, bank transfer for the larger jobs where the card fee starts to matter. Both settle into your account.

Recurring bills run without you

A maintenance plan or retainer charges on its schedule and sends its own reminders. Check the contact record for the run history.

How it works

How it works

  1. Connect the account that will receive the money.
  2. Build the invoice on the contact record, so it knows who it is for.
  3. Send it by text or email. It goes out with a link to pay.
  4. The status changes when the money arrives, and the record shows it paid.

Worth knowing

Worth knowing

  • Card processing carries a fee per transaction, set by the payment processor rather than by us. Check it before you price a job.
  • Bank transfers take days to clear. Fast on card is not fast on every method.
  • It sends and chases. It does not do your bookkeeping, and your accountant will still want the figures exported.
