For freelancers and small agencies

Stop chasing overdue invoices manually.

Overduly keeps track of what’s outstanding and sends professional payment reminders on your behalf — so following up stops depending on you remembering to.

Free for your first 3 invoices. Reminders stay off until you turn them on.

The problem

Getting paid late is rarely about the client refusing

It's about the gap between the due date and the moment someone finally chases it — and that gap is usually your time.

  1. 01

    The invoice quietly goes past due

    Nobody refuses to pay. It just slips down someone's inbox, and a week later you're the one who has to notice.

  2. 02

    You put off the follow-up

    You rewrite the same message three times trying not to sound pushy at a client you want to keep working with.

  3. 03

    Your cash flow waits on your admin

    Checking which invoices are outstanding, and chasing the ones that aren't, is unpaid work you do instead of billable work.

How it works

Three steps, then it runs without you

  1. Step 1

    Add the invoice

    Client, amount, due date. Or import your unpaid sales invoices from Xero.

  2. Step 2

    We watch the due date

    Nothing is sent while an invoice is still upcoming. Reminders stay off until you switch them on.

  3. Step 3

    Reminders go out on time

    At 3, 7 and 14 days overdue, each one firmer than the last — until you mark the invoice paid.

These are the real messages, not samples written for a marketing page. Each one escalates a little, and none of them will embarrass you in front of a client you want to keep.

Quick reminder about invoice INV-0042

Hi Harper & Co,

Hope you're well. Just a quick note that invoice INV-0042 for $1,800.00 was due on 31 July.

If it's already on its way, please ignore this — otherwise you can settle it here: https://pay.example.com/inv-0042

Thanks, Sarah Chen Design

A light touch, in case it simply slipped through.

You stay in control

It's your name on the email, so nothing sends by surprise

This tool emails your clients. That only works if you trust it, so the defaults are deliberately cautious.

  • Off by default

    Every new invoice starts with reminders switched off. Nothing is sent to anyone until you deliberately enable it.

  • Read it before they do

    Preview the exact message on each invoice, and send a test to yourself first.

  • It stops when you say so

    Mark an invoice paid, or switch its reminders off, and no further reminders go out for it.

FAQ

Questions worth asking first

Will you send emails without my permission?

No. Reminders are switched off on every invoice until you turn them on for that specific invoice, and you can preview each message first.

Can I pause reminders?

Yes, at any time, from the invoice itself. Pausing stops the sequence immediately and you can resume it later.

Can I mark an invoice as paid manually?

Yes. Marking an invoice paid is a single action, and it's how most people will use it — we don't connect to your bank.

Does it work with Xero?

Yes. Connect Xero in Settings to import your unpaid sales invoices instead of typing them in. Invoices paid, voided or deleted in Xero stop being chased here, and reminders stay off until you switch them on.

What happens after an invoice is paid?

Reminders stop immediately. No further messages go to that client for that invoice, and your dashboard totals update.

Can I customise the reminder messages?

No. The sequence is written for you — friendly at 3 days overdue, professional at 7, firm at 14 — and you can preview exactly what will be sent.

Which currencies are supported?

USD, GBP, EUR, CAD, AUD and INR are supported. If you invoice in more than one, totals are shown per currency — we never add different currencies together, because that number would be meaningless.

Can I cancel anytime?

There’s nothing to cancel on Free — no subscription or card. When paid plans open, they’ll have no long-term contract either. You’ll be able to cancel from Billing and keep access until the end of the period you’ve paid for.

Do my clients need an account?

No. Your client receives an ordinary email showing your business name, and there is nothing for them to sign up for or log into. By default replies come back to Overduly rather than to you; you can switch that in Settings so they go to the address you signed up with, which your clients will then see. Only a confirmed address can be used.
