How it works

From connected books to collected invoices

Set up in an afternoon. Review what would send. Then let the polite chase run — and stop on payment.

Connect

Plug in the books you already keep

Link Xero, QuickBooks Online or Sage and your invoices flow in on a schedule from then on. No accounting software? Upload a spreadsheet — the column-mapping wizard remembers your layout, and duplicate detection stops one customer from becoming three records.

You do this once · about ten minutes

Review

See your whole overdue book in one register

Every overdue invoice lands in an aged register — six aging bands, a “next action” column, and search and filters that actually help. Nothing is being chased yet; this is just the first honest look at where the money is.

Choose your voice

Pick a ladder, make it sound like you

Choose a reminder sequence — gentle, standard, or one you build yourself — and edit any message word for word. Set quiet hours, weekends off, a minimum amount, and flag the customers who should never be chased at all.

You decide · every word is editable

The first-run review

Nothing sends until you’ve seen the plan

Before go-live, PayBlah lays out exactly which invoices would be chased and what each message says. Approve it and the chase begins. Prefer to sign off every single send, forever? Switch the account to approve-first mode — and the kill switch is always one click away.

You approve · nothing surprises you

It runs

Polite, persistent — and it knows when to stop

Reminders go out on schedule, in your name, over email — and SMS on plans that include it. The moment anything needs judgement, the chase stops and asks you: a payment or part-payment halts it, a reply pauses it for triage, a dispute freezes it, and firm wording waits for your approval before it goes anywhere.

Money lands

Watch it come in — counted honestly

The dashboard shows what’s overdue, what’s being chased, and what came in — and the collected figure only counts an invoice when it was paid within 14 days of a reminder. Payments made through your PayBlah links are reported separately. Numbers you could show your accountant.
