Frequently Asked Questions

How do I ensure I don't get ghosted after sending the final render?

Using a digital invoice allows you to require payment before the final high-resolution files are released. You can send a watermarked preview and only trigger the final download link once the digital payment is confirmed.

What is the best way to handle 'scope creep' without awkward budget conversations?

Digital invoicing makes it easy to send an immediate 'Change Order' invoice for additional revisions. This keeps the project moving and ensures that extra work is paid for before you spend hours in After Effects.

How can I get my 50% deposit faster from new clients?

By sending a professional digital invoice with integrated credit card and ACH options, you remove the friction of physical checks. Clients can pay with one click on their phone, letting you start the animation immediately.
