Made for UK trades

Invoices paid in
30 minutes,
not 30 days.

Quote the job, get the thumbs-up, and turn it into an invoice in two taps. Add an optional 30-minute discount so customers settle on the spot by card or Apple Pay — with payouts routed straight to your bank.

No monthly fee. Only pay when you get paid — or build fees directly into your quotes.

THE PROBLEM

Chasing payment after a job eats your evenings

Invoices are built to be paid on first sight, so most customers settle before you pack up.

THE PROBLEM

30-day terms wreck your cash flow

The invoice is paid today instead of sitting on 30-day terms.

THE PROBLEM

Reminders get ignored

A clear saving and a live timer give customers a reason to pay before they leave the site, not 'later'.

HOW IT WORKS
  1. 01

    Send a quote, get notified when it's accepted by your customer

  2. 02

    Turn it into an invoice in a few taps

  3. 03

    Your customer pays in one tap — card, Apple Pay or Google Pay

    Include an optional small discount to encourage your customer to settle their invoice within 30 minutes.

No subscription — only pay when you get paid.

SEND A QUOTE

Send it, track it, get the yes.

Price the work, send it by email or text, and get notified the moment your customer accepts. One tap turns their yes into a ready-made invoice — no retyping, no lost details.

  • Send a quote from your phone in under a minute
  • Customer accepts or declines from the same private link

Whatever is already in their pocket.
Sent by email and text
Your customer opens the link from their message and pays in a couple of taps — no account needed.
Receipt and VAT PDF issued automatically

JOB PAPERWORK

Send the certificate with the invoice, not the day after.

Jobs get held up when Gas Safe records, EICRs or risk assessments are still in the van. Attach them to the invoice so your customer has everything they need to pay on the spot.

  • Gas Safe records, EICRs, HSE forms, risk assessments and photos
  • Customer downloads them from the same payment page
  • Nothing extra to email, chase or forget

CIS-READY

Construction Industry Scheme deductions, handled correctly.

CIS doesn't have to complicate every invoice. Switch it on only when it applies, split labour from materials, and Paid30 shows the deduction at the right HMRC rate.

  • Optional CIS toggle on invoices — stays out of the way when you don't need it
  • 20% or 30% deduction rate, set to your UTR
  • Labour, materials and deduction shown clearly on the PDF and payment page

STAGED PAYMENTS

Larger jobs split into clear milestones.

Not every job fits a single invoice. Break it into deposit, milestone and final stages, each with its own tax point and its own 30-minute discount window.

  • Deposit, milestone and final stages on one job
  • Each stage becomes its own invoice and receipt
  • Customer pays each stage with the same early-payment discount

Example: £600.00 invoice paid within 30 minutes

ItemStarterPro
Invoice total£600.00£600.00
Early-payment discount (2%)£12.00£12.00
Your customer pays£588.00£588.00
Paid30 platform fee (2% / 1%)£11.76£5.88
Card processing fee (estimate)≈ −£9.02≈ −£9.02
Estimated net to your bank£567.22£573.10

Card processing fees are charged separately by our payment processor on each transaction (typically around 1.5% + 20p for UK cards). Paid30's platform fee is on top of that. Processing figures are estimates for illustration — your exact rate depends on the card or payment method your customer uses. The discount is the reward you offer for paying within the 30-minute window.

Keep the price you quoted

When you build a quote or an invoice, turn on Cover the estimated cost of getting paid and Paid30 lifts the total slightly so the estimated cost is built into the job price — you keep the net amount you wanted, and your customer sees one clean, all-inclusive price.

Questions tradespeople ask.

How does the 30-minute discount work?

When you send an invoice, you add a small discount that only applies for 30 minutes. Your customer sees the saving and the deadline, and the payment page shows a live timer. If they pay within the window, they save money and the invoice is marked as paid instantly. After 30 minutes, the page switches to the full amount automatically.

Can I add VAT to my invoices?

Yes. You set your business details and VAT rate in settings, and every invoice you create includes a full UK VAT breakdown, your VAT number, and sequential invoice numbers. Your customer receives a receipt and VAT PDF automatically once they pay.

What happens when the timer runs out?

The payment page updates in real time. The discounted price disappears and the customer sees the original full amount. They can still pay with the same secure link, but the early-payment discount is no longer available.

How do my customers receive the invoice?

Each invoice gets a unique, private payment link. We email it to your customer automatically, and you can also send it by text. They open the link from their message, choose card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, and pay in a couple of taps — no account needed.

Can my customers pay from their phone?

Yes. The payment page is built for mobile first. Whether your customer opens the link from an email or a text, the page works in their browser and they can pay with whatever method is already saved on their phone.

How do I get paid?

You connect your own bank account once, then card, Apple Pay and Google Pay payments are taken instantly and paid out to that account on a rolling schedule, typically a few days after each payment. Your very first payout takes longer while your payout account is verified — usually 7 to 14 days — and that wait is one-off. Your balance and expected payout dates are always visible in the app, and every payment is timestamped as proof of when it was made.

Can I attach job certificates to an invoice?

Yes. You can upload Gas Safe records, EICRs, risk assessments, method statements and photos when you create the invoice. Your customer receives them on the payment page and can download them without creating an account.

Does Paid30 handle CIS deductions?

Yes. If you work under the Construction Industry Scheme, you can enable CIS in your settings, add your UTR, and choose the 20% or 30% deduction rate. The invoice separates labour and materials, applies the deduction to labour only, and shows the breakdown on the PDF and payment page.

What does it cost?

There is no monthly fee on the Starter plan. Paid30 keeps a small platform fee only when you successfully receive a payment — 2% on Starter, 1% on Pro. On top of that, card processing fees are charged separately by our payment processor on each transaction, typically around 1.5% + 20p for UK cards. See the pricing page for a worked example.

Does it work with my accounting software?

Yes. On the Pro plan you can connect Xero or QuickBooks, and every paid invoice is pushed across for you — the invoice itself, any early-payment discount you gave, and the Paid30 fee — so your books match your bank without re-typing anything.

Where do my receipts and statements come from?

Every payment produces a tax receipt PDF you and your customer can download, and your documents page holds a month-by-month CSV statement showing gross taken, discounts given, fees and net paid into your bank — ready to hand straight to your accountant.

Can I split a large job into staged payments?

Yes. You can create a job with multiple stages — deposit, milestone, final — and send an invoice for each stage when the work is done. Each stage has its own tax point, receipt and 30-minute discount window, so your customer can pay as the job progresses.

Can I record expenses for Making Tax Digital?

Yes. Upload or photograph receipts and Paid30 extracts the supplier, date, total and VAT. If you're VAT registered, you can record VAT separately, and your expenses export alongside your invoices in the quarterly accountant pack.

What is the accountant pack?

It's a single ZIP file you download at the end of a quarter. It contains your paid invoices as PDFs, your expense receipts, and CSV statements showing money in, money out, discounts and fees — sorted into Invoices/ and Expenses/ folders. It's ready for Xero, QuickBooks, Sage or a manual handover to your accountant.
