Invoicing and payments

Get paid before you've packed up the ute.

Tradies Line is invoicing software for tradies. Invoices go out from the job with a pay link, and with reminders on, the slow payers get chased for you.

No card, no time limit.

The Tradies Line jobs board for one day: eight crews and two individuals, each in their own lane, with every job from 7am to 5pm in the crew's colour

Invoicing, in short

Tradies Line is invoicing and payments software for trade businesses in Australia and New Zealand. Invoices are made from the job, carry a pay link, and mark themselves paid when the money comes in. With reminders on, the unpaid ones are followed up by email, then by text and a short AI call once TradiesLine Pay is connected.

Chasing money you've already earned

  • The awkward text

    Writing 'just checking in' to a customer you'd like to keep.

  • Bank statement bingo

    Sunday afternoon spent matching deposits to invoices.

  • Under the power bill

    No way to pay on the spot, so the invoice sits in their inbox until they get round to it.

Tap the link, pay, done

Every invoice you send carries a pay link. With TradiesLine Pay on, your customer pays by card or phone wallet, or with Afterpay or Klarna where available, and the money lands in your own account. The invoice marks itself paid, so there's nothing to match up.

  • No login for your customer, just the link
  • Without online pay, the page shows your bank details instead
  • A Payments page lists everything paid online, each linked to its invoice

AI invoicing: drafted for you, chased for you

Wombo drafts the invoice from the job with a pay link, for you to check and send. With reminders on, the unpaid ones get followed up: emails first, then texts and a short AI call that texts the pay link. Every reminder and how it went shows on the invoice.

  • It stops the moment the invoice is paid
  • Switch chasing off for any single invoice
  • Calls only on weekdays in business hours, and stop if the customer disputes it or says they've paid

How the chasing runs

Only when you turn reminders on. Every step is skipped once the invoice is paid.

  1. On the due date

    The first email reminder, with the pay link.

  2. 3 and 7 days later

    Two more emails.

  3. 10 and 13 days later

    Two texts with the pay link, once TradiesLine Pay is connected.

  4. From 16 days

    A short AI call on weekdays in business hours, every three days, up to five. It texts the pay link during the call and notes what the customer says.

  5. Paid

    The invoice marks itself paid and the reminders stop.

Questions about invoicing

How do customers pay an invoice?

Every invoice you send carries a pay link. With TradiesLine Pay on, your customer pays by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, or with Afterpay or Klarna where available, and the money lands in your own account. The invoice then marks itself paid. Without it, the page shows your bank details instead.

How does invoice chasing work?

Turn reminders on and unpaid invoices get followed up for you: three emails first, then, with TradiesLine Pay connected, two texts and a short AI call on weekdays that texts the pay link. It stops the moment the invoice is paid, and you can switch it off for any single invoice.

Does it work with Xero?

Yes. With Xero connected, invoices go out through Xero and come back marked paid on their own, and Xero sends its own reminders for them.

Do quotes and invoices handle GST?

Yes. They carry your ABN or NZBN and a GST line, with prices shown GST-inclusive or exclusive the way you set them.

Does Wombo send quotes and invoices on his own?

No. He drafts them and you check and send. Nothing goes to a customer or moves money until you say so. The one thing he sends on his own is replies to customer messages, in conversations where AI replies are on, and you can take over any time.
