    Invoicing & Recurring Billing

    What It Does

    An estimate is a promise; an invoice is how you get paid. Benchmark's Invoicing & Recurring Billing tool turns accepted estimates into invoices in one click, sends them by text or email, and lets customers pay online — by card, ACH, or tap-to-pay. For businesses with contracts, set up recurring billing that charges automatically each cycle: a monthly lawn care contract, a weekly pool service route, a quarterly HVAC maintenance plan. For bigger jobs, offer payment plans that split the balance into scheduled installments. Every invoice, payment, and balance syncs back to the contact and pipeline automatically — so you never wonder who owes you, what's past due, or whether a recurring contract is still active. No separate invoicing tool, no manual payment entry, no lost paperwork — just quote-to-cash that flows straight through your system.

    Common Questions

    Invoicing & Billing — FAQ

    How do I create an invoice?

    You can turn an accepted estimate into a branded invoice in one click — line items, taxes, terms, and payment options are already filled in. You can also create a standalone invoice from any contact record at any time.

    How can customers pay invoices?

    Customers pay directly from the invoice by card, ACH bank transfer, or tap-to-pay on a mobile device — no phone calls, no mailing checks. Payments are recorded automatically against the invoice and contact.

    Can I bill recurring contracts automatically?

    Yes. Set up recurring billing for any contract — a monthly lawn care plan, weekly pool service, quarterly HVAC maintenance — and the system charges the stored payment method automatically on the schedule you define.

    Can I offer payment plans for larger jobs?

    Yes. You can split a large invoice into scheduled installments so customers can say yes to bigger projects while you get paid on a predictable schedule — with each installment tracked automatically.

    Does the system remind customers about unpaid invoices?

    Yes. Automatic, polite reminders go out for unpaid and past-due invoices on the schedule you set — so you get paid without making awkward follow-up calls yourself.
