## Built for how roofing contractors get paid

### Deposits and draws reminded before they fall due.

Each deposit, draw and final invoice gets reminders before its due date, by email and text, with a link to pay.

- Each payment is its own invoice in the ledger
- On your schedule, such as 3 days before
- Paying early stops the later reminders

### Payment plans that get large re-roof balances paid.

Split a large job balance into installments, and Paidnice reminds the homeowner before each one is due.

- You set the limits on every plan
- A saved card or bank account can be charged
- A missed installment goes overdue and gets chased

### Deductibles and draws paid by card or bank from any reminder.

Homeowners and GC accounts pay the deductible or the next draw on your branded portal, from the link in every reminder.

- Card or ACH payment
- Every open job listed in one place
- No login needed

## Know what is coming in, and who to call first

Paidnice turns your ledger into answers: the draws and balances due this week, the builders and homeowners who pay late and the jobs that need a call.

- Expected payments, week by week, from your ledger
- A credit score for every customer, from how they pay
- Aged receivables for each customer, at a glance
- A weekly report emailed to your team

## Keep the roofing job software your team already runs

Keep billing from your roofing job software exactly as you do now. Once its invoices sync to Xero or QuickBooks Online, Paidnice picks them up and runs the rest.

- **Invoices sync over**Each invoice your roofing job software pushes to Xero or QuickBooks Online reaches Paidnice with its customer, amount and due date.
- **Nothing to re-enter**No import, no second ledger and no new invoicing tool. Paidnice works from the invoices already in your accounting.
- **Payments land back**Payments taken through Paidnice are recorded against the invoice in your ledger, so your books stay current.

> It’s the debt collection system I’ve been looking for, for the last 15 years.

## How it works for roofing contractors

Does Paidnice work with JobNimbus?
Many roofing companies on JobNimbus already sync their invoices to QuickBooks Online, and that is all Paidnice needs. Keep estimating and invoicing in JobNimbus as you do now. Once the invoice lands in QuickBooks, Paidnice picks it up, sends the reminders, adds any late fee, and records the payment. The same goes for AccuLynx and Jobber.

Can a roofing contractor charge late fees on overdue invoices?
Many roofing contractors can charge a late fee when their contract or invoice terms spell it out, and rules on the amount vary by state. Paidnice handles the mechanical part: it calculates the fee you set, flat or a percentage, posts it to the invoice in QuickBooks or Xero, and tells the customer. What you charge, and whether you waive it, stays your call.

How does Paidnice know which invoices to chase?
Every roofing invoice you raise lands in QuickBooks or Xero, and Paidnice reads them from there. It sees the due date, the amount, and what has been paid, then follows the schedule you set. Pay a deposit invoice and the chasing on it stops the same hour. You never upload a spreadsheet or retype a customer.

Can I run different rules for homeowners and general contractor accounts?
Yes, roofing companies usually run two policies in Paidnice. Homeowners on insurance jobs get gentle email and text reminders while the claim pays out. General contractors, builders, and property managers on net-30 get a firmer schedule with statements, finance charges, and an escalation when a draw goes 14 days over. Group each customer once and the right policy applies on its own.

What happens when a supplement is still with the adjuster?
Roofing jobs often have one invoice waiting on the insurance company while the rest of the balance is due. Pull that supplement invoice out of the schedule by its reference and reminders keep running on everything else. When the adjuster approves it, put it back and the chasing picks up where it left off.

What does Paidnice cost for roofing contractors?
For roofing contractors, Paidnice Essentials starts at 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.

Can the homeowner be reminded before the final invoice is due?
Yes, roofing contractors can send a reminder before the due date, with a calendar invite for the day, so the homeowner has the final invoice in hand when the depreciation check arrives.

## Stop waiting on money the insurance company already paid.

Connect Xero or QuickBooks and Paidnice prepares draft policies for you. Nothing runs until you approve them.
