Frequently asked questions
What is a payment reminder?
A payment reminder is a short, polite notice that an invoice is due or overdue. It restates the invoice number, the amount and the due date, and asks the customer to pay.
When should I send a payment reminder?
A friendly reminder a few days before the due date, then again shortly after, works well. Most late payment is simply forgetfulness, so an early nudge is often enough.
How do I keep reminders polite?
Lead with a friendly tone, assume the best, and make paying easy by restating the amount and how to pay. Escalate the firmness gradually only if it stays unpaid.
Can this tool send reminders automatically?
Create an account to schedule polite reminders before and after the due date, with a one-click cancel if the customer has already paid. Chasing overdue invoices is a major small-business pain point, and automating it saves hours.
Does the payment reminder generator cost anything?
No charge applies in the current release. You can build and download a payment reminder with no watermark and no card details requested, and without an account. There is no account to create: everything is built and stored in your own browser.
