Getting paid
Get the deposit before you start the work.
Send a bill to a client’s page and they pay it by card, right there. The money goes into your own Stripe account — we never hold it — and you can watch the bill go from sent to paid without asking anyone. It is the same three clicks whether it is the deposit before you start or the last payment at the end.
No card. Two questions. Your first 2 clients are free.
How it works
Three steps, start to finish.
No settings screen to get right first. Pick the thing, change the words, send it.
- 01
Connect your own Stripe account
Once, at the start. Stripe is the company that actually moves the money; setting up an account is free and takes a few minutes. Every payment after that lands in it.
- 02
Send the bill
An amount and a line saying what it is for. Anything from $1 to $50,000 — enough range for real work, tight enough that a slipped key cannot send someone a wildly wrong number.
- 03
They pay, and you see it
It shows as sent until they pay it, then as paid. Nobody has to ask, and nobody has to remember to tell you.
What's included
What it actually does.
Read off the product rather than written to sound impressive — every line below is true of it as it ships today.
The money is yours immediately
Payments go straight into the Stripe account you connected. We never hold a balance of your money, so there is no payout day to wait for and nothing of yours sitting in our account.
One fee, said out loud
We take 2% of a payment made through your portal, and Stripe charges its own card fee on top of that. On a $1,000 bill our share is $20. That is the whole list.
Bill any other way and we take nothing
Bank transfer, cash, the invoicing app you already use — nothing forces a payment through the portal, and we take no cut of anything that does not go through it.
They cannot change a bill
A client can look at a bill and pay it. Raising one, correcting one and cancelling one all stay with you, so nothing gets edited from the other side by accident.
Their receipts, kept for them
Every client has an Invoices page of their own with everything you have billed them on it, paid and unpaid — which cuts out the "can you resend that receipt" email entirely.
Nothing to write
These are already written. You just send them.
19 documents come with your portal — contracts, forms, checklists and two short guides about money. 5 documents are on the free plan, the rest on any paid one. Every word in them is yours to change, and they are starting points rather than legal advice.

Straight answers
A couple of things worth asking.
Do you ever hold my money?
No. It goes into your Stripe account, and our 2% travels along on the same payment rather than being collected from you separately or billed to you later.
Can I charge someone every month automatically?
Not yet. There is no automatic repeat billing, so a monthly retainer means sending the bill yourself each month. It takes about a minute, and we would rather say so than let you find out in week five.
What if my client wants to pay by bank transfer?
That is between the two of you, outside the portal, and we take nothing from it. Card payment is there when you want it; it is never the only way to get paid.
Ready when you are
Your next client can start properly.
Every part of the software is on every plan, the free one included. Your first 2 clients cost nothing and there is no card to enter.
