The Hidden Friction in Email Invoicing
Sending an invoice via email seems simple, but the friction is high. The client has to open the PDF, find the bank details (often in small print), log in to their bank, and manually type them in. This friction is a major cause of late payments.
The "Click-to-Pay" Signature
Paycilo allows you to embed a permanent Payment Link directly in your email signature. It sits right next to your social icons or phone number. A simple text link saying "Pay Invoice" or "Make a Payment" directs clients to your secure profile.
Why It Works
- Accessibility: The client can pay you anytime, even if they can't find the original invoice attachment. Your details are always one click away in every email you have ever sent.
- Accuracy: By centralizing your bank details on Paycilo, you eliminate the risk of sending an old invoice template with an expired bank account number. Update Paycilo once, and every email signature link is automatically updated.
- Professionalism: It shows you are tech-forward. Instead of a clunky "Please send funds to Account: 123...", you offer a sleek, branded experience.
Perfect for Retainers
For consultants on monthly retainers, this is invaluable. Clients don't need a new invoice every month. They just click your signature link, type "September Retainer" in the reference, and pay. It automates the habit of paying you.
