Invoice reminders
Automatic invoice reminders that chase late clients for you
Manual follow-up burns evenings and relationships. Duebird schedules payment reminders for unpaid invoices so overdue follow-up happens without another awkward email from you.
The due date / 3 days later / 7 days later ladder
Reminder dates are calculated from the invoice due date. Free includes the due-date stage. Pro unlocks all three stages.
Stage 1
Due date
If the invoice is still unpaid on the due date, Duebird can send the first reminder the same day — a polite nudge while the work is still fresh.
Stage 2
3 days later
Three days later, a second reminder goes out if payment still has not been marked. Firm, clear, still professional.
Stage 3
7 days later
Seven days after the due date, the third reminder closes the automatic ladder. After that, you decide the next escalation.
Why not just chase manually?
- You forget until cash flow hurts.
- Every chase email feels personal — and drains goodwill.
- Spreadsheet reminders do not know when you already marked an invoice paid.
Automatic reminders keep the schedule consistent. When you mark an invoice paid, further reminders stop.
