From US$69 a month, no contracts." url: https://www.paidnice.com/about-us --- # Wouldn't it be great to get paid on time, all the time? Paidnice is accounts receivable automation software for businesses on Xero and QuickBooks Online. Here is why we built it. The idea was born out of our own frustration in previous businesses we ran: payments slowed down for all sorts of reasons. The biggest of which is that most accounting platforms are really great at doing the ledger, but not very good at doing the chase. So we set out to build the system we needed. It sent every reminder on time, applied the late fees the terms already promised, and never forgot an invoice. The wait for payment halved. In 2022 that system became Paidnice. This isn't new ground for us. We've worked on finance apps for many years, so we understand the problems behind late payments well. We're on a mission to end late payments. Businesses on Xero and QuickBooks around the world run their receivables through Paidnice: reminders, late fees, interest, statements, payment plans and escalation. In their first 30 days, they see half as many late invoices. Your payment terms are only words on a PDF until something enforces them. Paidnice brings them to life. We built it for ourselves first. ## What Paidnice does Six results customers get from Paidnice on Xero and QuickBooks. 50%fewer late invoices in the first 30 days40%lower DSO on average8 in 10invoices paid within the first 60 days of using Paidnice - ### [Get paid on time and keep the relationship](https://www.paidnice.com/reminder-software) Reminders read like a person wrote them, reach the right person at each customer, and stop when the invoice is paid.Email and SMS, with email from your own domain - AI-written and rotating email versions - Pauses for payment promises and open disputes ### [Payment terms that enforce themselves](https://www.paidnice.com/late-fees) Paidnice posts late fees and interest into Xero or QuickBooks, so a broken payment term has a cost. - Repeat fees while an invoice stays unpaid - UK statutory interest on the Bank of England base rate - Different terms for each customer group ### [Customers settle up on their own](https://www.paidnice.com/customer-payment-portal) Reminders link to a portal with your branding, where customers see what they owe and pay without a login or a phone call. - Card, ACH, BACS or direct debit - Self-serve payment plans - Payment promises and disputes ### [Every reply moves the invoice forward](https://www.paidnice.com/credit-control-ai) Paidnice reads each customer reply and drafts the next step for a person to approve or revise. - Payment plans that customers ask for by email - Updated PO numbers and resent invoices - Contact details updated from replies ### [No overdue invoice slips through](https://www.paidnice.com/escalations) Overdue invoices become cases with a named owner and the full payment history. - Calls, credit stops and legal letters - Alerts when a payment promise is broken - Team alerts in Slack or Microsoft Teams ### [Know when the cash will land](https://www.paidnice.com/accounts-receivable-reporting) Paidnice predicts when each invoice will be paid from how that customer actually pays you. - Week-by-week payment forecast - A 0 to 100 credit score on every customer - Which reminders get invoices paid within 7 days Some features are settings you switch on, and some need the Pro plan or above.
