send an invoice by text message

for service businesses where the customer is standing right in front of you, sending the invoice by sms beats email every time. most pay before they leave the parking lot.

3 steps~2 min
  1. 1

    build the invoice as usual

    create the invoice in pawpaw the same way you always would — line items, total, due date.

  2. 2

    make sure the phone number is on the invoice

    in the customer block at the top, the phone field has to be filled in. if the contact came from your client list, it's already there. if it's a one-off, type the number in.

  3. 3

    click "send by text" instead of "send invoice"

    the send button has a small dropdown next to it. pick "send by text" — pawpaw texts the customer a payment link from your business number.

    tip

    the median time to payment for sms invoices is under 10 minutes vs. ~3 hours for email. if you're standing next to the customer, always use text.
