Accounts receivable software
for childcare centers and nurseries.

For childcare centers and nurseries on Xero or QuickBooks Online, Paidnice chases every unpaid fee invoice gently, takes the payment and adds the late fee only where your policy allows.

  • Every family reminded politely, from your own domain.
  • One statement per family, every child on one page.
  • Weekly or fortnightly fees paid in one tap on the phone.

Every family gets a polite reminder, before fees pile up.

Email and text reminders go out on the schedule you set, to the parent who pays, from your own domain. A missed week is caught the same week.

"We deal mostly with large b2b where our invoices often go missing during the approval process. Paidnice automates our outreach and statements allowing us to be paid much faster."

184 automated actions queued for the next seven days: reminders, late fees and statements, each with the family and the day it goes out

One family statement, every child on one page.

Statements go out on the day you choose with every open fee invoice, both children and the running balance. Parents see one clear total instead of a pile of weekly invoices.

Late fees or statement interest, set per family group, so families on a payment plan stay exempt. In Australia the gap fee is the provider's fee minus the Child Care Subsidy, and providers must take all reasonable steps to collect it (Department of Education).

How it works for childcare centers and nurseries

Does Paidnice work with Infocare or Enrolmy?

Childcare centers and nurseries we work with often invoice from Infocare or Enrolmy, which push the fee invoices into Xero. Paidnice chases the fee invoices a center raises in Xero or QuickBooks Online to families. Nothing changes about enrollments, attendance or how you bill. Paidnice only needs the invoice to land in your ledger.

Can a childcare center charge late fees or interest on unpaid fees?

Childcare centers and nurseries usually have a late payment clause in the enrollment agreement that is rarely applied. Paidnice applies the fee you set, on the schedule you set, and shows it on the family's statement. Rules differ by state and by funding scheme, so check your agreement and local rules, and set the fee to match or leave it off.

How does it treat subsidies and funded hours?

Childcare centers and nurseries invoice families for their share after the subsidy or funded hours come off. Paidnice chases the amount on that invoice in Xero or QuickBooks and nothing else. It does not touch subsidy claims, session reports or funding returns. Those stay in your childcare management software.

Will reminders upset the families we see every morning?

Childcare centers and nurseries keep the relationship intact because every reminder comes from your own domain, in your words, with a pay button. A family that is struggling gets a gentler schedule or a payment plan, and the ones who have quietly fallen behind get a consistent, polite follow-up instead of an awkward conversation at pickup.

What if a family disputes one charge?

Childcare centers and nurseries can take one invoice out of the policy by its number, say a disputed excursion fee, and the rest of the family's account keeps its normal schedule. Reminders, the statement and any late fee carry on for the other invoices while you sort out the one in question.

What does Paidnice cost for childcare centers and nurseries?

Childcare centers and nurseries pay from US$69, Β£49 or A$99 a month on Essentials, priced by invoice volume, not revenue. There are no contracts, and your first 20 actions are free.
