Benefits of integrating InvoiceReminder

Chasing unpaid invoices is easy to fall behind on when it competes with everything else running a business involves. InvoiceReminder removes that manual work as once connected, it watches your FreeAgent account and automatically follows up on every overdue invoice on a schedule you control, so nothing slips through simply because nobody got round to it.

Reminders escalate in tone automatically the longer an invoice goes unpaid. They start with a friendly nudge before the due date, moving through firm reminders and ending with a final notice that calculates statutory interest and compensation under the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998. Each email includes the real invoice PDF pulled directly from FreeAgent so customers never have to ask for a copy.

The result is faster, more consistent collections and better cashflow, without you or your team having to remember who’s overdue and manually chase them one by one.

How InvoiceReminder works with FreeAgent

After you connect your FreeAgent account, InvoiceReminder syncs your overdue invoices in FreeAgent, including the contact’s name, email and phone number, so chase emails are addressed correctly from the start.

On each sync, InvoiceReminder compares the current overdue list against what it already knows. New overdue invoices start being chased automatically and any invoice that’s dropped off the list (because it’s been paid or resolved in FreeAgent) is automatically marked paid and chasing stops. There’s no manual bookkeeping required on either side.

Reminder emails are sent on the schedule you set, attach the invoice PDF fetched directly from FreeAgent, and automatically pause if the customer replies - so you’re never chasing someone who’s already been in touch.
