Automatic reminders

Build reminder flows with email and SMS. Payfriend is not a collections agency product — reminders are professional follow-up on unpaid invoices.

Written by Nicki Elgaard

Payfriend can send automatic reminders on unpaid invoices by email and SMS using a flow you configure. This is not collections: there is no collections-agency handoff as a core product — the goal is faster payment without damaging the relationship.

Why it matters

Late payments hurt cash flow. A predictable, professional flow reduces manual chasing and helps you stay within Danish rules for reminder fees and deadlines when you use them.

How it works in Payfriend

  1. You have invoices (created in Payfriend or imported from accounting)

  2. Under Reminders / Flows you define steps: when, which channel, which tone

  3. When an invoice is overdue, the flow can send reminders automatically

  4. The customer can pay via the channel/link you set up

  5. When the invoice is paid, follow-up stops

Imported invoices

On move-in, Payfriend never automatically reminds on imported invoices until you actively allow it under Invoices → Adopt reminders. Details: Moving into Payfriend.
