Payment Reminders

Automatically remind clients about unpaid invoices with escalating urgency.

Payment Reminders

Invoice For Me can automatically send payment reminder emails to clients with unpaid invoices, escalating in urgency over time.

How Auto-Reminders Work

When an invoice goes unpaid past its due date, Invoice For Me sends a series of reminder emails on your behalf:

TimingToneSubject Line
Due dateFriendly"Friendly reminder: Invoice #1234 is due today"
3 days overdueGentle"Following up on Invoice #1234"
7 days overdueFirm"Invoice #1234 is now 7 days overdue"
14 days overdueUrgent"Urgent: Invoice #1234 requires immediate attention"
30 days overdueFinal"Final notice: Invoice #1234 — 30 days overdue"

Each email includes a direct link for the client to view and pay the invoice online.

Enabling Reminders

  1. Go to Settings → Reminders
  2. Toggle Auto-Reminders on
  3. Choose which reminder stages to enable (you can skip any stage)
  4. Optionally customize the number of days for each stage

Manual Reminders

You can also send a one-off reminder manually. Open any unpaid invoice and click Send Reminder. This sends a single reminder email immediately, regardless of auto-reminder settings.

Per-Invoice Reminder Settings

If you want to disable reminders for a specific invoice (e.g., for a client you know is in the process of paying), open the invoice and toggle off Auto-Reminders for that invoice only.

Tip: Clients who receive timely reminders pay an average of 8 days faster than those who don't.
