Three things nobody else does. And everything you'd expect.

Most invoicing tools help you produce a document. Clerqpay is built around what happens after you send it — whether it can be paid, whether the tax is right, and who does the chasing.

Start for free — no card needed
01It's a payment page

Your client gets a page they can pay on, not just a PDF

Every invoice becomes a link. Card, bank transfer or USSD in Naira — no account, no login, no app for them to install.

See what your client sees

Client payment portal

Every invoice and quote gets its own secure link. Clients view, download, pay and accept without creating an account — and they see one invoice, never your client list or your revenue.

  • No login required for clients
  • Branded with your business name
  • Works on mobile and desktop

Paystack payments

Connect your bank account once and every invoice you send is payment-ready. Paystack settles to your bank, usually the next working day — Clerqpay never holds your money.

  • Card, bank transfer and USSD in Naira
  • No Paystack account needed for clients
  • Instant payment notifications

A-la-carte quotes

New

Mark any line item optional. Clients toggle what they want on the portal and the total updates live, so their acceptance records exactly what they chose.

  • Live total as the client selects
  • Accepted selections lock to the invoice
  • Cuts the back-and-forth

Receipts, issued automatically

New

A numbered receipt is generated the moment an invoice is paid, and you can resend it any time. Sequential numbering, full history on file.

  • Auto-generated on payment
  • Resend on demand
  • Sequential receipt numbering
02We get Nigerian tax right

VAT is added. WHT is deducted. The invoice says what you'll actually be paid.

Withholding tax is the most argued-about line in Nigerian B2B billing, and most invoicing tools cannot express it at all.

Multi-tax engine

New

Configure VAT and WHT as separate rates and apply more than one tax type per invoice. The breakdown is shown to your client, not just calculated behind the scenes.

  • VAT additive, WHT deducted by the payer
  • Per-invoice tax configuration
  • Net payable stated on invoice, PDF and portal

The conversation this ends

Every freelancer who has invoiced a Nigerian company has had it: you billed one number, the payment landed lower, and now you are working out who was right. Clerqpay treats VAT and WHT as what they are — one adds to the bill, the other is withheld by the payer and remitted on your behalf — and states the net payable on the invoice, the PDF and the portal. Your client sees the same figures you do, before they pay.

03We do the chasing

Stop writing “just following up”

The part of getting paid that costs you evenings. Clerqpay does it on a schedule, in your tone, and stops the moment the invoice is paid.

Automated reminders

Clerqpay nudges your client three days before the invoice is due and again on the day itself, then follows up on day 3, 7, 14 and 30 past it — friendly first, firmer as it ages. Then it stops: one more chase does not collect money, it costs you the client.

  • A heads-up 3 days before it's due, and on the day
  • Then day 3, 7, 14 and 30 past due
  • Tone escalates: friendly → firm
  • Stops automatically when paid

Real-time view tracking

See the moment your client opens the invoice — it turns Viewed on your dashboard, with the count and the time. It ends the most common stall in the whole process.

  • Viewed timestamp recorded
  • Status moves Sent → Viewed
  • View count on every invoice

Decaying early-pay discounts

New

Set two countdown tiers and a live timer runs on the client's payment page. It is the only feature here that changes when a client pays, rather than recording that they haven't.

  • “5% off within 24h, 3% in the next 24h”
  • Live countdown on the portal
  • Discount applied automatically

And everything you'd expect

The parts that are table stakes. They are all here, they all work, and none of them is the reason to choose Clerqpay.

Recurring invoices

Weekly, monthly, quarterly or yearly. Retainers bill themselves — auto-generate or auto-send.

Naira, Cedis, Kenyan Shillings, Rand, Dollars, Pounds, Euros and eight more.

Payment links

A shareable link with no invoice attached — for a DM, an email, anywhere.

Either kind on any invoice or quote, with the breakdown shown to your client.
