Yes, if your marina bills slips and storage from QuickBooks Online or Xero, or runs Molo, which sends its invoices there: Paidnice works from whichever ledger holds your invoices. It does not raise invoices and it does not replace anything you run at the front desk. It chases what your ledger already knows about. Can a marina charge late fees on slip and storage invoices? Yes, when the marina's slip agreement or storage contract provides for them, and Paidnice applies the policy automatically: a flat fee, a percentage, or interest on the whole overdue balance, shown on the invoice and the statement. Rules vary by state, so check your agreement and local requirements first. How does Paidnice know which invoices to chase? Anything unpaid past its due date in your marina's Xero or QuickBooks file joins the schedule you set: reminders first, then statements, then interest or escalation. When a payment lands in the ledger, the chasing for that invoice stops on its own. Our slip holders are away half the year. Will reminders reach them? Yes: slip holders who winter in another state still read email and text, even when nothing reaches the boat. Paidnice sends both, from your own domain, on the schedule you choose, and every message carries a link to a portal where the owner can pay the full balance by card or ACH from wherever they are. What does Paidnice cost for marinas and boatyards? Marinas and boatyards start on Essentials from US$69, £49 or A$99 a month, priced by invoice volume, not revenue. There are no contracts, and your first 20 actions are free, so you can run it on this season's slip invoices before paying anything. Can we put an annual slip fee on a payment plan? Yes: a marina can split one slip invoice into weekly, monthly or quarterly installments, with an optional surcharge for splitting. With Stripe connected, the owner can enable autopay in the portal so each installment charges on its date. A missed installment makes the invoice overdue again, so the normal reminders and interest apply from that date. What about the customer who disputes one charge? The slip fee reminders keep running while the boatyard sorts out the one work order in question: pull that single invoice out of the schedule by its reference and the rest of the account carries on. When the dispute settles, put the invoice back and it rejoins the cadence. ## Stop financing every absent owner's boat all winter. Connect Xero or QuickBooks and Paidnice prepares draft policies for you. Nothing runs until you approve them.
