What it is

Payment tracking in ProperTradie records payments against invoices — bank transfer, cash and other manual methods, plus optional Stripe for online invoice payments. Invoice status updates based on confirmed payments. Customers can report a payment from the public invoice link for your review.

Why tradies need it

Most tradie jobs are paid by bank transfer or cash, not card terminal. Without a clear record, you forget who paid a deposit, which invoice is part-paid, and what still needs chasing.
