In short
A client payment reminder tool sends polite, automated reminders to clients about due and overdue invoices on your behalf. PayNudge focuses on gentle wording and good timing — sending automatic emails from your business name, plus one-tap SMS drafts you send from your phone — so you collect what you're owed without the friction that strains a client relationship.
Why chasing clients feels different
Chasing a faceless account is easy. Chasing a client you'll work with again next month is not — there's a relationship on the line, and most people would rather eat the late payment than risk the awkwardness. That instinct is exactly why good clients quietly become your slowest payers.
A reminder tool takes the personal sting out of it. The follow-up becomes a normal, expected part of how you run your business rather than a personal confrontation — which is easier for you and, frankly, easier for the client too.
Gentle by default, firm only when needed
PayNudge leans gentle. The first reminder assumes the client simply forgot and the wording stays warm. If the invoice keeps aging, the sequence escalates on its own — firmer at day 3, final at day 7, still professional, never hostile.
You control every word and the tone of all three steps; PayNudge owns the timing. Reminders send under your name and reply to you, so to the client it reads like a thoughtful note from you, not a debt collector.
It knows when to stop
Nothing damages a relationship faster than a 'you still owe us' email the morning after the client paid. PayNudge stops the sequence when an invoice is marked paid or your connected tool syncs the payment. Sync runs daily, so record payments manually if needed before the next run.
Who it's best for
- Freelancers and agencies with repeat clients
- Consultants who hate mixing money talk with the work
- Anyone whose best clients are also their slowest payers
- Owners who want firm follow-up without sounding harsh
Frequently asked questions
Will reminders annoy my clients?
Not if they're gentle and well-timed, which is what PayNudge is built for. The first reminder assumes an honest oversight, and the sequence only firms up if an invoice keeps aging — three emails in total, then it stops. A clear, polite nudge is a normal part of doing business.
Can I keep the tone friendly?
Yes. You control the wording and tone of every message, from a warm reminder to a firm final notice. The default templates are deliberately gentle.
Do clients know it's automated?
No. Reminders are delivered through PayNudge, show your business name and direct replies to your configured reply-to address. A PayNudge attribution footer appears during the trial.
What if a client pays halfway through the reminders?
The remaining reminders stop when payment is recorded in PayNudge. Integrations sync daily; you can mark an invoice paid yourself before the next sync.
How much does it cost?
CA$2 per distinct overdue invoice when the first qualifying email is confirmed delivered to the receiving server. Remaining follow-ups for that invoice are included. Maximum CA$29 per monthly billing period before taxes; no qualifying usage means CA$0. Same CAD pricing worldwide. A 14-day free trial needs no card; after the trial, set up payment to send new paid sequences.
Stop chasing. Start getting paid.
PayNudge sends a three-step sequence of gentle, personalized email reminders automatically — day 1, day 3 and day 7 past due — plus one-tap SMS drafts you send from your phone. Remaining reminders stop when payment is recorded in PayNudge.
