How to chase late payments

Days 1-7 (Friendly): A light touch. Assume they forgot. Keep it warm — most late payments are just oversight, not refusal.

Days 8-30 (Formal): Professional and clear. Reference the invoice terms, mention any late fees, and set expectations for payment timeline.

30+ days (Final demand): Firm, specific, and legally sound. State the total due (including late fees), give a deadline (7 business days), and mention potential escalation to collections or small claims court.

What Is Invoice Chaser?

Invoice Chaser is a free tool that generates professional payment reminder emails for overdue invoices. It addresses the common freelancer problem of not knowing how to word a payment chase email. The tool provides three escalating tone levels and includes a late fee calculator.

How to Chase Late Payments Effectively

Start with a friendly reminder (most late payments are oversights). If no response after a week, escalate to a formal email referencing the invoice terms. After 30 days, send a final demand letter with a specific deadline and mention of potential escalation. Always document your communication attempts.

Is this legal advice?
No. The generated emails are templates for common business situations. They do not constitute legal advice. For serious disputes, consult a collections attorney.
