Frequently Asked Questions

Using digital invoices allows you to set up automated payment reminders and include a 'Pay Now' button, so clients can settle their balance instantly from their phone the moment the walk is completed.

By using a professional invoice template that includes a line item for 'Late Cancellation Fees,' you can clearly communicate your policy and use digital payment processing to collect that fee immediately when a gap in your schedule occurs.
