Money & collections

Know who owes you, and get it collected.

Collections lists every unpaid invoice, oldest first. Ava offers to remind each customer until they pay and stops the day they do. Money shows what came in. Until sending is on for your shop, every reminder waits in a queue you can read.

On your computer

On your phone

Desert Demo Electric is a sample shop in the real Aestar app: nothing you click there calls, texts or charges anyone. Card payments, and the pay link in each reminder, are coming next.

Collections in the Aestar app: Alex Quinn owes $229 for GFCI outlets, 9 days, and Jordan Hale $1,000 for a panel upgrade, each with Queue nudge, Mark contacted and Open invoice. Example shop.

Oldest first

Every unpaid invoice with what it's for and what's owed, the oldest at the top. Open the invoice, queue a reminder, or mark that you've reached the customer. A draft you haven't sent isn't counted, and never gets a reminder.

Ava's offer in the Aestar app: 2 unpaid invoices, $1,229, remind them until paid? With choices for how often, what hour and text or email, and Yes, set it up. Example shop.

Each reminder links to the customer's own page for that invoice. Paying by card there is coming next.

Reminders that stop when they pay

When invoices sit, Ava asks: two unpaid invoices, $1,229, remind them until paid? Pick how often, what hour, and text or email. She writes each reminder and stops the day it's paid.

What came in

Money shows what you've collected and what's still open, and Revenue adds it up by week or month.

Who you've already called

Called someone yourself? Mark them contacted, so the list shows who's been reached and who hasn't.

Questions

Money & collections questions.

Does Aestar text my customers about money?

Not yet. Ava writes each reminder and queues it. Texts go out once texting is approved for your shop, and email is coming next. Until then you can read every queued reminder and send it yourself.

Will a customer get a reminder for an invoice I haven't sent?

No. A draft isn't owed until you send it, so it's left out of Collections and never gets a reminder.

When do reminders stop?

On their own, the day the invoice is marked paid.

Can customers pay online?

Not yet. Card payments through Stripe are coming next. Today you record cash and check payments on the invoice.
