Payment collection for contractors tired of chasing customers by hand

Contractor payment collection automation that reminds on time and posts every payment to its invoice

Due dates, retainage release and any lien waiver requirements come from the contract and local law, so a reminder that ignores the job's own terms can be wrong as well as awkward. BoldBellows matches each payment to its invoice, its job and the payment terms recorded in the contract, sends courteous reminders on the days those terms allow, posts every payment received and passes anything disputed to your owner, then builds the route around the habits of your accounts desk: each invoice carries its due date and terms, the route sends a friendly reminder before it is due and again when it is late, includes a payment link so the customer can pay in a click, records the payment against the right invoice when your payment tool reports it and thanks the customer with a receipt. A customer who disputes an invoice, asks for a plan or stops answering is passed to your owner with the history. The route reminds and records; your people decide how to deal with a late account.

01 · the late-payment problem

Money you chase by memory arrives when you remember to chase it

In many contractor offices, collection means someone scanning the list of unpaid invoices when the account runs thin. A reminder goes out on whatever day the scan happens, a payment arrives by check or card without a clear reference, and the bookkeeper matches it a week later. Some customers are late because they forgot, some because of a real question about the work, and the office cannot tell the two apart until it has made the call.

Reminders sent when cash is tight

The timing followed the need, not the terms.

Payments with no reference

Matching them took days.

Awkward chasing

The tone depended on who wrote.

02 · how it works

How an open invoice becomes a payment posted and a receipt sent

Nothing is written until the change is judged and the payment has been looked for.

  1. 01

    Admit only what counts

    Each Construction event is verified and logged; anything outside the agreed scope is set aside with a reason.

  2. 02

    Remind, link, wait

    The route reminds before and after the due date with a link to pay.

  3. 03

    Post, thank, escalate

    It posts the payment, sends a receipt and passes disputed accounts to a person.

The Contractor rules this design works within

  • Payment terms live in the contract

    Due dates, retainage release and any lien waiver requirements follow the contract and local law, so reminders use the terms recorded for the job and anything touching a waiver goes to a person.

  • Disputes stop the reminders

    When a customer raises a question about the work, further reminders pause and the account goes to the owner.

  • Retry rules

    Retries are preceded by a check of the receivables tracker using the invoice number, the job and the due date, so repeating a request cannot repeat its effect.

How Construction gets into the receivables tracker: a list of unpaid invoices checked when cash runs short, a connector, or a collection route with timed reminders, payment links and every payment posted to its invoice

Each can send an invoice. Only one times reminders to the terms, posts each payment and holds disputes for a person.

An old change turns up late

A delayed Construction event is compared with what the receivables tracker already holds and is set aside if it would undo something newer.

A customer pays part of an invoice

The route posts the partial amount, shows the remaining balance on the invoice and sends the next reminder only for what is still owed. The invoice number, the job and the due date turns the question into a lookup, and the answer is one of four: nothing, right, wrong or unclear. Everything else is an update, a no-op or a case for a person.

Before fields or branches are discussed, the invoice number, the job and the due date is fixed, because every later decision reads from it.

Pricing

06 · process & getting started

Six steps from chasing by memory to payments that post themselves

Six stages, one owner on your side, and a written output at the end of each.

  1. Step 01

    Read how payments are chased today

    We look at a few late invoices and trace who reminded, when and how the payment was matched.

  2. Step 02

    Approve access

    A restricted login for Contractor comes first, the same for every tool payment collection reminders writes to, followed by an agreed list of matching keys.

  3. Step 03

    Agree the reminder rules

    Timing by terms, wording, payment methods, when to stop and who handles disputes are written out and approved first.

  4. Step 04

    Try to make it fail

    Every failure we can think of is tried against a test the receivables tracker, and the ones that matter become written repair steps.

  5. Step 05

    Launch with notes

    Once tests pass, the route goes live from a set checkpoint and the documentation is delivered.

  6. Step 06

    Thirty-day look-back

    A review at the end of the first month covers volume, exceptions, retries and anything that drifted.

What you need to hand us

  • Read access to the Contractor data the route will use

  • Your open invoices with their terms, the payment tool in use and the reminder wording you prefer

  • Construction credentials we can use for the agreed resources and events

  • The trigger you want: what must happen in Construction before anything is sent

  • A decision on which Construction values must never reach the receivables tracker

  • Confirmation of which environment is production

09 · security and ownership

Your data stays in its place, except what the map allows

Contractor data is read through an account you control, kept to the payment collection reminders fields, and never copied beyond what is needed.

Read-only Construction to Invoice Reminders access: your data stays yoursA glowing shield with a tick at the centre of rings, with read-only lines in and named-people lines out, keeping your data yours.READ-ONLYYOUR ACCOUNTNAMED PEOPLEYOUR DATA STAYS YOURS

Your tools stay as they are

We work with the supported connection points of Construction and the receivables tracker and leave the products exactly as you run them today.

Scoped, revocable access

Each connection has the narrowest permissions that work, recorded in the handover.

Less data, less exposure

Each field sent to the receivables tracker has a stated purpose. Sensitive values are excluded or masked before anything is written.

Look, compare, then act

An unclear write is settled by finding the payment and comparing it with the intended values, not by sending again.

Minimal logging

Diagnostic records are deliberately thin, so there is little to protect.

Full handover

There is no lock-in; the notes explain every setting we chose.

11 · questions

Payment collection automation: what owners and bookkeepers ask

Read these first; whatever is left can be asked in your quote request.

PriceTimeAccessHandover?Every question, answered
Will a ready-made Contractor zap do payment collection reminders?

A simple connector can give you open invoices reminded on time and payments matched to the right job. It will not remind a customer, take a payment or post it. These are the parts the build adds.

Does it threaten customers?

No, reminders stay courteous, and anything stronger is your decision.

What about lien waivers?

They follow the contract and local law, so the route can flag the need, but a person prepares and sends them.

Which payment methods work?

Whatever your payment tool supports, such as cards and bank transfers.

How are checks handled?

A person marks the check received and the route posts it to the invoice.

What if a customer disputes the bill?

Reminders pause and the owner gets the account history.

Can it add late fees?

Only if your contract allows them and you set the rule; the route never adds charges by default.

Does the work cover mapping Contractor values for payment collection reminders?

Yes. We draw up the field map for Contractor payment collection reminders, you check it line by line, and nothing is built until you agree.

Does the route allow different rules for different cases in the Contractor Payment Collection service?

Yes. We write your conditions for payment collection reminders into the build, from $1,605.

Is payment collection reminders protected from Contractor releases?

If the platforms change, the route degrades gracefully: it holds the affected record and flags it. Follow-up support once your review window ends is quoted on its own.

Get paid without chasing

Give your invoices reminders on time and payments posted to the right job

One trigger, one result, one person for exceptions: with those, Contractor payment collection reminders is priced from $1,605.
