# Invoicing & Payments for HVAC Contractors

Invoicing and payments that close at the kitchen table

Invoices go out at job completion, customers pay by card on the spot, and anything outstanding gets chased professionally — even your commercial accounts.

## Why it works for this trade
- **Collect on completion:** The invoice is ready when the job closes, so residential work gets paid the same day, not the same month.
- **Financing-friendly proposals:** Install quotes convert to invoices cleanly, with online payment that removes friction from big-ticket jobs.
- **Receivables that don't stretch:** Aging balances get automatic, professional follow-up until they're paid — you never make an awkward call.

## A day in the life
The install wraps at 3pm. The invoice is in the customer's inbox before the truck leaves, they pay by card that evening, and it's reconciled against the job automatically.

## FAQ
Q: Does it work for maintenance agreement billing?
A: Yes — recurring agreement customers are tracked in the CRM and invoiced on schedule without manual work.
