# Payment Collection for Home Service Businesses

## Headline

Invoice from the job, not weeks later

## Summary

Send payment links from invoices, accept cards through Stripe, and automate reminders until balances clear.

## Common Comparison Points

- **Checks and cash that slow cash flow**: Waiting for mail or a return trip to collect payment pushes payroll and material costs onto your card.
- **Payment apps disconnected from invoices**: Venmo and Zelle payments that do not match a job record make bookkeeping a weekend project.
- **Manual reminder loops**: Remembering who to nudge between stops means overdue invoices pile up quietly.

## Capabilities

- **Payment links on every invoice**: Customers pay from a link in text or email — no account required on their end.
- **Stripe card processing**: Connect Stripe once — card payments land against the right invoice and customer.
- **Automated payment reminders**: Set cadence for overdue balances — FieldRobin sends reminders you approve in advance.
- **Paid status on the job**: See partial and full payments on the job record — know who is clear before the next visit.

## Example Workflow

1. Send the invoice with a pay link. Customer gets the total and a one-tap way to pay from their phone.
2. Track opens and payments. See viewed and paid status on the invoice — no guessing who still owes.
3. Automate follow-up. Reminders run on your schedule until the balance clears or you pause them.

## FAQ

### What payment methods are supported?

Card payments through Stripe on invoice payment links. Connect Stripe in settings to get started.

### Are payments tied to jobs?

Yes. Every payment links to the invoice and job — customer history stays complete.


## Who It Is For

Solo (1 technician/user), Crew (2–5), Growing (6–15), and Medium (16–50) home-service businesses, including HVAC, plumbing, electrical, landscaping, cleaning, pest control, handyman, and pressure washing businesses.
