The problem
What Payments solves
Consultation payments rarely arrive neatly. Some clients pay in advance, some pay half now and half later, some pay a family member’s fee too.
When payments are noted in a notebook or a chat, it becomes impossible to say who paid for what, and receipts are written by hand, if at all.
