Payment reminders for contractors and trades
The job's finished, the invoice is out, and you're already on the next site — so the follow-up never happens. PayNudge chases overdue job invoices for you automatically by email — plus one-tap SMS drafts you send from your phone.

In short
Contractors and trades businesses often finish a job, send an invoice, and never get time to follow up because they're on the next site. A payment reminder tool automates that follow-up, sending scheduled reminders on overdue invoices so jobs get paid without office time. PayNudge syncs with Square and Stripe, sends email reminders automatically, and gives you a one-tap SMS draft to send from your phone until you're paid.
You're on a roof, not at a desk
Trades businesses don't have an accounts department — they have you, after hours, trying to remember which invoices are outstanding. Follow-up is the first thing that drops when the next job starts, and that's exactly how a $4,000 invoice ends up sixty days late.
PayNudge moves the follow-up off your plate entirely. Reminders go out on schedule whether you're on a site, in the van, or asleep, and stops remaining reminders when payment is recorded in PayNudge.
Texts get answered; emails get buried
Homeowners and site managers often miss emailed invoices but answer a text fast. PayNudge gives you a one-tap SMS draft you send from your phone, so a polite reminder lands where your customer actually looks — and they can reply straight to you.
Every message uses your business name, so it reads like you sent it from the truck, not a robot.

Frequently asked questions
Does PayNudge work with Jobber?
Jobber direct sync is temporarily unavailable. Use CSV import or manual entry with current outstanding balances, and mark invoices paid in PayNudge when payments arrive. Square and Stripe direct sync are available.
Can it send text reminders?
Yes — PayNudge gives you a one-tap SMS draft for any reminder that you send from your phone. For trades, a text often gets a far faster response than email.
What about deposits and progress billing?
Each invoice — deposit, progress, or final — is tracked separately, so PayNudge follows up on whatever is outstanding and stops when payment is recorded in PayNudge.
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.
