For small businesses
A billing system your whole small business can use
A clear billing system for the whole team: customers, invoices, payments, tax rates and reports, without the parts of accounting software you would pay for and never use.
What you need done
Three jobs, and what MetroPay does about each
Every card ends with what the product does not do, so nothing here is a surprise after you sign up.
Keeping every customer and invoice in one place
- The problem
- Invoices in a folder, customers in a spreadsheet, payments in the bank app, and the answer to "did they pay?" in three of them.
- What MetroPay does
- Customers, items, invoices, payments and statements in one workspace. Overdue is worked out every day, and each customer has a statement.
- What it does not do
- It is not accounting software. It does not do the books, payroll or tax filing.
Charging the right tax on every line
- The problem
- Two tax rates, a customer who is exempt, and an invoice that has to add up the way the accountant expects.
- What MetroPay does
- Named tax rates for the workspace, applied per line and rounded per line. Each line remembers the rate it was billed at.
- What it does not do
- It does not file a tax return or produce a tax report. Your accountant works from the payments received and sales reports.
Letting the team work without sharing a password
- The problem
- One login for everyone means anyone can change the bank details, and nobody can say who sent what.
- What MetroPay does
- Four roles. Staff send invoices, the accountant records money, owners and admins change settings. Two-factor sign-in for all of them.
- What it does not do
- It does not offer custom permission sets or single sign-on with a company directory.
How it works
How small businesses use MetroPay
Set up customers, items and tax rates
Once. Every invoice after that is mostly choosing.
Invoice and get paid
Card, mobile wallet or bank transfer, on a page your customer opens from the email.
Follow up on the late ones
Reminders on a cadence, once you switch them on, with every send logged.
Read the reports
Receivables aging, sales by customer, sales by item and payments received, for everyone on the team.
The features that matter here
Built from the same product everyone gets
Every workspace has every feature. These are the ones this kind of business reaches for first.
Online invoicing
Create a branded invoice, email it with a payment link, and see at a glance whether it is draft, sent, paid or overdue.
Online payments
Customers pay by card or mobile wallet on the invoice page, through your own Stripe or SSLCommerz account. MetroPay never holds the money.
Payment reminders
Polite follow-ups before and after the due date, with a record of every reminder sent. Off until an owner turns them on.
Off until you turn it onReporting
Receivables aging, sales by customer, sales by item, and payments received. What you are owed, and who owes it.
Team permissions
Owner, Admin, Accountant and Staff roles keep money actions with the people who should have them.
