Invoices: More flexibility with payments and invoicing
planned
G
Gabe Grieve
The Problem:
The way that the invoicing system currently works is too rigid for some photographers. Photographers would like to be able to customise their client's payment structure to allow:
- Payment plans / payment instalments
- More than one invoice per shoot
- Allow tipping after a shoot

Hi Lindsey Millar thanks for reaching out. At the moment, we are in the middle of a pretty substantial rebuild of our business architecture - a necessary first step to enable us to make big changes to our invoicing system.
Once that is complete, our first priority is to tackle some minor invoice changes (like being able to add quantities and custom line items to invoices). Once that is complete, the current plan is to explore the option to add multiple invoices per shoot, and finally the ability to break those invoices down in to multiple payment instalments.
It's a bit of a long road ahead, but it's our key priority at this stage. We'll keep you in the loop when we have any updates.

I was using Shootproof before converting and I LOVED that I could offer payment plans with payments either weekly or monthly for Wedding customers. Not everyone can make the lump-sum payment so it was convenient for everyone. If I had known I'd loose that ability I wouldn't have made the switch...

I agree that different forms of accepting payments is crucial. Payment via Venmo is a common ask from my clients.

Absolutely need to have payment plans and tipping! I didn’t realize this wasn’t a feature when moving from my old CRM and now I want to move back because my clients really liked having payment plans and the tips were such a great addition!

Yes please to multiple invoices per shoot. It's not great for clients to see what they've already spent when I'm trying to upsell galleries 😬

Allowing multiple payments

The current issue with Unscripted only allowing 2 payments (max) is that we now have to look to outside sources to bill clients. Venmo / CashApp / Zelle / etc., don't work because it looks unprofessional, and looking outside of the app to bill / invoice clients now creates opportunity to miss payments and invoices, not to mention having to keep track of it all.
It's gotten to the point where trusted business coaches and mentors are suggesting (insisting) I look to other platforms to host my business to maintain a better streamlined product for both me and my clients.
Ideally the feature is added and I'm able to keep my business here, but with the promise of "we're working on this feature" over the past several years, I'm quickly losing hope and patience.
