Cleaning invoices.
Connected payments.

Create an invoice from completed work. After connecting Cleanr Pay through Stripe, email a secure online payment link or charge a saved card when the customer has authorized it. Cleanr keeps quotes, invoices, payment activity, and customer balances beside the cleaning schedule.

Make payment the next step after the work

Cleanr gives each cleaning business control over when an invoice is created and how a customer is asked to pay.

1

Choose how the work bills

Use per-session billing for an invoice after each eligible completed clean, fixed-price billing for a recurring contract invoice, or manual billing when the arrangement needs your review.

2

Complete and review

Add any extra charges, customer-facing invoice notes, internal notes, or job photos during completion. Then review the amount before choosing what happens next.

3

Collect or follow up

With Cleanr Pay connected through Stripe, charge an authorized saved card and send a receipt or send the invoice with its Pay Now link. You can also skip invoicing for work billed another way. Track the result from the Money workspace.

Keep the price, work, and payment history connected

Cleanr links each financial action back to the customer and the cleaning work that created it.

Invoices with an activity trail

Follow invoices through Pending, Sent, Paid, and Overdue, with cancellation and refund statuses for exceptions. The invoice timeline records creation, sending, reminders, and payment.

Online payment links through Stripe

Connect Cleanr Pay through Stripe, then send a Pay Now link with the invoice. Card details are handled by Stripe; Cleanr does not see or store raw card numbers.

Quotes that continue into the schedule

Create a quote with line items and optional site photos. For larger work, add customizable payment milestones. When the work is approved, use Convert to Appointment instead of entering the job again.

Balances and payment activity

See collected and outstanding amounts, find overdue invoices, and open the customer behind a balance. Follow invoice creation, sending, reminders, and payment in the activity timeline.

Match the billing rule to the customer agreement

Per session

Create an invoice for each eligible completed clean. This fits residential customers who expect to pay after every visit.

Fixed price

Set a weekly, biweekly, or monthly recurring invoice independent of session count. This can fit an office or contract cleaned several times inside one billing period.

Manual

Keep invoice creation in your hands for custom arrangements. You can also create a standalone invoice with custom line items from the Money area on iPhone or the Invoices area on the web.

Use card payments with clear expectations

The software organizes collection, but your customer agreement and accounting obligations still belong to your business.

Cleanr is a strong fit when…

You want the invoice to follow directly from a cleaning appointment, need payment links or authorized card-on-file charging after connecting Cleanr Pay through Stripe, and want owners to see quotes, balances, overdue work, and payment activity without piecing together separate job records.

Plan for these boundaries

Online card acceptance requires successful Stripe onboarding. When customers pay your invoices online, standard Stripe processing fees apply. Obtain customer authorization before charging a saved card. If you need general-ledger accounting, tax filing, payroll, inventory, or other specialist finance workflows, evaluate those tools alongside Cleanr.

Quotes, invoices, and payment tracking are included

The Cleanr subscription includes the product workflow. When customers pay your invoices online, standard Stripe processing fees apply.

What to know before you collect

Does Cleanr create invoices automatically?

For eligible per-session work, completing the clean can create the invoice and payment request. Fixed-price appointments follow their chosen recurring billing schedule, while manual billing leaves invoice creation to you.

Can I charge a customer's saved card?

Yes, after the customer has authorized card-on-file billing. Cleanr can charge the saved card and email a receipt, or you can send the invoice so the customer chooses when to pay.

Do customers need the Cleanr app?

No. When the business has connected Cleanr Pay through Stripe, the invoice email's Pay Now link opens checkout in a browser. Customers do not need to download the Cleanr app or create a Cleanr account to use the payment link.

Where are the setup instructions?

Use the invoicing and payments guide for invoices, statuses, quotes, and the Money tab. The getting-started guide explains how to connect Cleanr Pay.

Keep the operational record complete

See how cleaning scheduling software organizes the appointment and how staff dispatch and time tracking document the session before billing.

Need an invoice template first?

Download a free cleaning invoice template in PDF or Excel, with a completed example that accounts for a deposit. Before the work begins, use Cleanr estimating to prepare the quote, capture the customer response, and convert approved work into an appointment.

Test the clean-to-payment workflow

Create one appointment, complete it, and follow the invoice through the same workflow during your free trial.

14-day trial. No credit card required. Add a payment method to continue after your trial. Without one, your trial ends with no charge.
