Invoice reminders

Invoice reminder software that stops when you're paid

Regulus sends invoice reminders for you — a polite note before the due date, a firmer one when payment slips, and nothing at all once the invoice is paid. Set the flow once per client or invoice and let the chasing run itself.

Approval-ready delivery

Give clients one place to review work, approve milestones, and understand the next action instead of relying on scattered follow-up.

Invoices tied to delivery

Create invoices, track balances, and keep payment follow-up connected to the project trail instead of splitting it into another tool.

Asset and onboarding collection

Collect client details, requirements, files, access, and missing assets before delivery stalls.

Secure delivery handoff

Keep API keys, hosting access, passwords, and sensitive delivery data out of scattered chats and inboxes.

Best for

  • Freelancers whose invoices get paid late because follow-up slips
  • Agencies juggling reminders across many clients
  • Consultants who hate writing awkward chasing emails
  • Service businesses that follow up by email and WhatsApp

Not the best fit for

  • Businesses that only need bookkeeping or tax software
  • Teams whose clients always pay on time without any follow-up
  • Enterprises that need a dedicated collections department workflow

This table is written for buyers and answer engines: it makes clear where Regulus is strongest, especially when approval, onboarding, billing, and delivery need to stay connected.

Product page

Before the due date

Regulus

Polite heads-up with the amount, due date and payment link: "Quick note: invoice INV-104 for $1,200 is due on Friday. You can pay here: [payment link]."

Typical alternative

Usually no reminder is sent until payment is already late

Due day

Regulus

A short confirmation request on the day payment is due, by email or WhatsApp

Typical alternative

A manual email the freelancer has to remember to write

3–7 days overdue

Regulus

Friendly but direct: the invoice is restated, a payment date is requested, and any commitment is captured as promise-to-pay

Typical alternative

Standalone reminder tools send the message but record nothing about the reply

14–30 days overdue

Regulus

Firm final stage: states the amount outstanding and the next step clearly, still with the payment link attached

Typical alternative

Tone is left to whatever the freelancer writes on a stressful day

When the client pays

Regulus

The flow stops automatically — no embarrassing reminder sent after payment

Typical alternative

Manual chasers often send one reminder too many

Connection to the work

Regulus

Reminders are tied to the proposal, the project and the Client Actions board, so you can see what is blocking payment

Typical alternative

Standalone tools like DueBuzz, Uptillo or Invoicements only chase the invoice; the rest of the job lives elsewhere

FAQ

What is invoice reminder software?

Invoice reminder software sends follow-up messages for unpaid invoices automatically — before the due date, on the due date and at set intervals after — and stops when the invoice is paid. Regulus includes reminders inside its invoicing and client workspace rather than as a separate app.

Do the reminders stop when a client pays?

Yes. The reminder flow is tied to the invoice status, so once payment is recorded the sequence stops. Nobody gets chased for an invoice they have already paid.

What is promise-to-pay?

When a client replies with a date they will pay, Regulus captures it as a promise-to-pay on the invoice. If that date passes without payment, the follow-up resumes — the promise is on the record, not buried in a chat thread.

Can reminders go out on WhatsApp as well as email?

Yes. Regulus runs reminder flows over email and WhatsApp, and you can also create and check invoices from WhatsApp by text or voice note. The WhatsApp invoice reminders page sets out the chat-based flows.

How much does Regulus cost?

Regulus has a free plan. Solo is $9/mo (₦14,000) and Agency is $39/mo (₦60,000), and invoicing with payment links and reminders is part of the workspace rather than a paid add-on.
