Quotes

When agency and studio owners come to us, they usually say

β€œI get that payment terms are just a part of business, but I don’t want to have to wait to get paid so I can reinvest in the business.”

Founder, bootstrapped startup

β€œAt any given moment I've got one month’s revenue worth of payments we’re owed that we haven't been paid for. It’s a risk.”

Finance Manager, ad agency

How it works

How Cheque works

Invoicing with early payout built in. You get paid on the invoices you choose, and we wait on the client.

Step 1

Create and send invoices, synced to QuickBooks

Create an invoice in a few clicks and choose which payment methods your client can use: card, ACH, wire or international transfer. Everything syncs with QuickBooks, so your books stay right without any manual work.

  • Client-ready invoices in minutes
  • Sync invoices, clients and services with QuickBooks
  • Works on its own, no integration needed

Step 2

Get paid upfront on the invoices you choose

On eligible invoices you get an early payout offer with the fee shown upfront. Each offer is priced on your client's payment history. Take the ones you want cash on now and skip the rest.

You get the full amount minus that one fee, with nothing held back. If a client never pays, that loss is ours, not yours.

  • Paid within a day of accepting an offer
  • No debt on your books, nothing to pay back
  • Your choice, invoice by invoice

Step 3

Nothing changes for your client

Your client gets the same invoice, for the same amount, due on the same date, and can keep paying to your bank details. There's no new vendor for them to approve and nothing to sign up for.

  • Same invoice, amount and due date
  • Paid to the same bank details as today
  • You stop chasing, we wait for the payment

People People People

When projects get delivered on day 60, you might not see cash in the bank until day 120. In between, you’ve already paid salaries, upfront costs and freelancers.

Bobby Aguirre

LΓΊgh Studio

You can have great clients and do great work. But when payments lag, everything slows down. You don’t realize how much it matters until it’s fixed. Cheque solves that for us.

Compare it to what you do now

Waiting costs you cash flow, a credit line adds debt, and a factor gets between you and your client. Cheque does none of that.

Funding

How we fund early payouts

Most invoice financing can only grow as fast as the lender’s balance sheet. Cheque is funded by its own payment flow. Clients can pay invoices early for a discount that Cheque gives them, and the vendor never pays for it. We pool those early payments and use them to pay vendors upfront.

Our own capital and a credit line fill any gap, and we adjust discounts and fees to keep supply and demand in balance. The more invoices run through Cheque, the more capital there is to pay vendors early.

How do the early payouts work?

Each eligible invoice gets an offer with the fee shown upfront. Accept the ones you want and skip the rest. You only pay a fee on the offers you accept.

Will you contact my client?

No, we don't reach out to your client. When you take an early payout on an invoice, that invoice and its payment page only show a small notice that the payment is assigned to Cheque, and any reminders still go out from you, under your name. Your client keeps dealing with you the way they always have.

Where does the money for early payouts come from?

Clients on Cheque can pay their invoices early and get a small discount. We give them that discount, so it never comes out of your pocket. We pool those early payments from across the platform, add our own capital and a credit line, and use all of it to pay vendors upfront. So your early payout doesn't depend on your own client paying early.

Do my clients see any difference?

No. They pay the same amount on the same due date using the same payment methods.

Which accounting software can I integrate with?

Cheque seamlessly integrates with QuickBooks, ensuring smooth and efficient invoicing workflows. Integration enables automatic syncing of invoices and payments, and importing of existing clients and items, streamlining your financial operations. Cheque can of course be used as a standalone solution too. If you choose not to integrate with QuickBooks, you can easily download all your data as CSV files for manual processing and record-keeping.

Do you support recurring billing?

Yes. Set it to repeat every week, month, quarter or year. It will automatically be sent out at your chosen cadence.

Which payment methods can I offer my clients?

You can send invoices with payments through ACH, credit card and direct debit integrated directly into the check-out.
