Invoicing & Chasing Software for UK Builders

Send. Chase. Get paid. CashChase is the operating layer for UK plumbers, electricians, builders, decorators, gas engineers and sole traders who are tired of writing the same "any update on that invoice?" message over and over. Send a quote in under a minute, turn it into an invoice with one click, and let CashChase chase the payment for you over email, SMS and WhatsApp until the money lands in your bank.

Built for UK trades

CashChase was built specifically for British tradespeople. VAT-ready invoices, GBP throughout, UK bank payouts via Stripe, plus integrations with the channels your customers actually read — WhatsApp, SMS and email. No corporate jargon, no per-user seat fees, no setup fee. Just a tool that quietly turns your quotes into paid invoices while you're on the tools.

What you get

  • Branded quotes sent in under a minute, accepted online with a single tap.
  • One-click invoicing from any accepted quote, with line items, VAT and your logo.
  • Automated payment chasing on a schedule you control — polite first nudge, firmer follow-ups, final notice.
  • Multi-channel reminders by email, SMS and WhatsApp so customers can't say they "didn't see it".
  • Stripe-powered card payments with payouts to your UK bank, plus bank transfer details on every invoice.
  • Customer CRM with full quote, invoice and payment history at a glance.
  • Templates for the jobs you do every week, so you never start from a blank page.
  • Mobile-first dashboard that works on the van, on the job, in the loft.

Why trades switch to CashChase

The average UK sole trader is owed thousands of pounds in late invoices at any given moment. Most of that money isn't lost — it's just stuck behind a customer who needs one more reminder. CashChase removes that admin from your evening. You set the schedule once, and every overdue invoice gets chased automatically, in your tone of voice, on the channels your customers prefer. You only step in when something needs a human touch.

Unlike heavyweight accounting suites, CashChase doesn't try to be your accountant. It does one job — getting your invoices paid — and does it brilliantly. Pair it with whatever bookkeeping tool you already use.

How CashChase works, end to end

The full CashChase loop is five steps: build a quote, send it to the customer, convert the accepted quote into an invoice, take card payment online via Stripe, and let CashChase chase any overdue invoice automatically by email, SMS and WhatsApp until it is paid. The dedicated walkthrough at How it works covers each chapter in detail with a short animated explainer.

Chapters in the walkthrough

  • Build a quote in under 90 seconds — line items, VAT (20% / 5% / 0% / exempt), customer details, all from your phone. Free plan covers 10 quotes per month; Pro is unlimited.
  • Customers accept your quote online — every quote you send includes a public link. The customer taps Accept and your dashboard updates in real time.
  • Convert an accepted quote to an invoice in one tap — line items, VAT and customer details all carry across. Free plan covers 10 invoices per month; Pro is unlimited.
  • Get paid online with Stripe — connect Stripe in Settings, every invoice gets a secure pay link, customer pays by card or wallet, the invoice marks itself paid. Stripe processing 1.4% + 20p per UK/EU card payment. Pro and Business plans.
  • Automated payment chasing — switch on the three built-in chase steps (pre-due email, first SMS prompt at +1 day, final WhatsApp warning at +7 days) and CashChase sends them automatically until the invoice is paid. Pro and Business plans.

  • Team & roles — invite office staff or apprentices into one shared workspace with owner, admin and member roles. Business plan only.
  • Reusable invoice templates — save the jobs you do every week as templates so a new invoice is half-done before you start. Pro plan.
