Making the invoice is the easy part. Getting the money in is the hard part. Here's the simple playbook — plus the free tools to run it — so you spend less time chasing and more time working.
All free, no login — and they work together.
A professional invoice with your payment details built in, a shareable payment page, and a paid/unpaid tracker.
Open →Friendly, follow-up or firm reminders — auto-filled with the amount and days overdue, ready to send.
Open →Send a quote that wins the job, then convert it to an invoice in one click when it's accepted.
Open →Send clean proof of payment, or turn any paid invoice into a receipt in one click.
Open →Put your payment methods (PayPal, Wise, Payoneer, bank, crypto) right on the invoice and add a payment link, so the client never has to ask "how do I pay you?" Create an invoice →
Agree the price and payment terms before you start — Net 7–14, or a deposit plus milestones for bigger jobs. Then state them on every invoice so there's no ambiguity.
A friendly nudge around the due date, a follow-up a few days later, a firmer note at ~14 days. Consistent, polite reminders get invoices paid. Write a reminder →
Stay calm and documented: send a firm reminder stating the days overdue, reference your agreement, and pause further work if needed. Records protect both the relationship and your position.
Make it effortless to pay you (payment details + a link on the invoice), set clear terms up front, send a friendly reminder around the due date, and follow up politely if it slips. Doing these consistently is what shortens the time to payment.
Net 7 to Net 14 is common, or "due on receipt" for small jobs. For larger projects, take a deposit up front and bill milestones. Always state the terms clearly on the invoice.
Send a firm but professional reminder stating the days overdue and asking them to flag any issue that day. Keep records, reference your agreement, and if it continues, pause further work and consider a formal demand.
