Xero covers four credit control jobs on its own: Aged Receivables reports, up to five automated invoice reminders per organisation, customer statements that you send by hand, and a credit limit on each contact. Xero does not charge late fees or interest, send statements on a schedule, offer payment plans or escalate an overdue account. A connected app does those jobs.

Email and SMS reminders go out before the due date and after it, from your own domain, in your words. Set different rules for each Xero contact group. Every overdue invoice gets chased, not just the big ones.
"Being able to send all communications directly from my own domain, everything looks fully branded and professional, with delivery tracking built in."
Fixed fees, a percentage, or a per annum interest rate. Applied weekly, monthly, or at a set number of days overdue. The charge goes onto the invoice in Xero, so your ledger and your Aged Receivables report stay correct.
"First round of late penalties and everyone magically paid their bill."
Statements go out weekly or monthly with a payment link. Customers pay every open invoice at once on your branded portal, or you offer a payment plan. Anyone still overdue gets escalated to a phone call, a credit stop or a formal letter, assigned to a person.
"Paidnice is a great tool to keep your clients accountable, adding a critical feature that Xero was lacking."
Nothing changes in Xero unless a rule you set makes it happen. Paidnice connects through the official Xero integration, so we never see your Xero password.

You get the Aged Receivables reports, up to five automated invoice reminders per Xero organisation, statements you send by hand and a credit limit on each contact.
