Collecting Payments from Clients
Updated over a week ago

You can quickly generate invoices, track time and expenses, securely accept client payments, and monitor invoice status - all in one platform. If your client mails or brings in a physical check, you can pull up the client information and note that the payment was made, marking the invoice as paid. This way, all payment information is still stored and tracked in one place.

You can also record a payment on behalf of your client.
