Where it is

Settings for this

Automatic reminders

  1. Open Settings → Quotes & invoices → Automatic Payment Reminders.
  2. Tick Email customers a reminder about unpaid invoices.
  3. Choose the moments: 7 days before due, 3 days before due, On the due date, 7 days overdue, 14 days overdue, 30 days overdue. They count from each invoice's due date, so set due dates (the Terms on the invoice).
  4. Save changes.

Each reminder comes from your business name with your logo and brand colour; replies go to your business email. It shows the balance and your bank details, plus Pay invoice online when card payments are on for invoices. A reminder is skipped if the invoice was paid, voided or credited before it went.

Send one now

On the invoice: Send reminder on the strip (once the invoice has been sent), or More → Send Payment Reminder. The email opens pre-filled ("Reminder:" or "Overdue:") with the PDF attached — edit and send.

Every reminder, automatic or manual, is listed in the invoice's Reminders panel on the right with when it went and whether it sent.
