How it works

Watch the movie

Every day the Getting-Paid system asks Less Accounting 5 questions about your Less Accounting account:-

Have you sent your customers any new invoices? If you have it gets the details and starts chasing them as they become due. If an invoice is paid on or before the due date it won't be chased (unless you have selected to send pre-due reminders).
Have any of your invoices been paid in full? Getting-Paid will stop chasing invoices that you've marked as paid in Less Accounting.
Has the invoice been voided or deleted? Getting-Paid stops chasing invoices with zero value.
Has the amount on any invoice changed. (Perhaps you added a line item or allowed a discount since you first made the invoice.) It updates the amount in the chasing system so that it’s always current.
Have any of your customer’s details changed? Getting-Paid automatically updates changes to customer details so you only have to worry about doing it in one place: - Less Accounting.

It’s really easy to get started.

It shouldn’t take you more than 10 minutes to start collecting outstanding money.
