It automates invoice reminders by email and SMS from your own domain, scheduled statements, late fees and interest, payment plans, a customer payment portal and escalation.

Paidnice connects through the official QuickBooks integration, so we never see your QuickBooks password. Late fees and interest go onto the ledger in QuickBooks, either on the original invoice or as a new invoice, so your aged receivables report stays correct. Can I control which customers get chased? Yes. Exclude any customer or a whole customer group. Add grace periods, and set different rules for different groups, so the customers who pay on time are left alone. Start in approval mode, and nothing sends without your OK. Will it chase the invoices that are already overdue? Yes. Paidnice reads the invoices already in QuickBooks, including everything overdue today. You can chase that backlog, apply late fees in bulk, and either add the fee to the existing invoice or issue it as a new one. What does it cost? Paidnice has a free plan, and paid plans start at £49 a month. Pricing follows your invoice volume, not your company revenue, and the Pro plan has unlimited users. How long does setup take?
