awkward collections calls you have to make yourself
24/7
polite follow-up, even while you’re on the job
The problem
You did the work. Getting paid shouldn’t be the hard part.
Late payments kill cash flow
An overdue invoice isn't just annoying — it's payroll, fuel, and materials you've already paid for. One slow customer can stall your whole week.
Chasing invoices is awkward and time-consuming
Nobody got into the trades to make collections calls. Every reminder you send yourself costs you billable hours — and a little bit of the customer relationship.
Bookkeepers and collections agencies are expensive
Hiring a bookkeeper just to chase payments adds overhead. Handing invoices to a collections agency means giving up 25–50% of what's yours — and torching the relationship.
How it works
Three steps. Zero awkward calls.
Set it up once, then let PaidUp HQ handle the follow-up while you’re on the job.
Connect your books
Link QuickBooks or Stripe in minutes. PaidUp HQ watches for overdue invoices automatically — nothing to upload, nothing to type.
We send escalating reminders
Starting with a friendly nudge and ramping to a firm reminder and final notice. Polite, capped, and in the tone you choose.
You get paid
Every message includes a secure payment link, so customers can pay in seconds from their phone. Sequences auto-pause the moment payment lands.

FAQ
Questions contractors ask us
Is this legal and compliant?+
Yes. Every message includes opt-out instructions ("Reply STOP to opt out"), reminders respect quiet hours, and the number of touches per invoice is capped. The moment a customer opts out, they're removed from all sequences — no exceptions.
Will it harass my customers?+
No. PaidUp HQ is built to preserve your customer relationships, not torch them. Messages start friendly and only escalate in tone if an invoice stays unpaid. Touches are capped, quiet hours are enforced, and you control the tone — friendly, professional, or firm.
Does it integrate with QuickBooks?+
Yes. PaidUp HQ connects to QuickBooks and Stripe in minutes. It watches for overdue invoices automatically, so there's nothing to upload or enter by hand.
What if a customer already paid?+
The sequence auto-pauses the instant a payment is detected. A reminder will never go out on a paid invoice — you won't get those painful "I already paid!" calls.
What happens if a customer opts out?+
They're immediately and permanently removed from reminder sequences, and quiet-hours and escalation caps are respected at all times. You can also manually pause or stop any sequence from your dashboard.
How much does it cost?+
Solo is $99/month (up to 50 active invoices, email + SMS reminders, payment links). Pro is $199/month (unlimited invoices, priority support, escalation calls). Both come with a 14-day free trial — no credit card required.
