Payment reminder SMS: get paid without the awkward call.
Most late payments are forgotten, not refused. A friendly text with the amount, due date and a payment link gets invoices paid sooner, and saves you chasing by phone.
A reminder schedule that works
- A few days before the due date: a friendly heads-up
- On the due date: a short reminder with the payment link
- A week overdue: a polite follow-up asking them to get in touch
Keep it friendly and factual
Include your business name, the invoice number, the amount and how to pay. Keep personal financial details out of the text, and move to a phone call or letter for anything more serious.
Use your existing payment link
KiwiTxt doesn't take payments itself. Paste the payment link from your invoicing or payment system into the text.
