Payment Reminders

Learn how to set up payment reminders with the correct timing, amount, and recipient so clients receive accurate notifications about upcoming or unpaid payments.

Written by Naomi Sherman

Check reminder timing, amount, and recipient so the client receives a clear and accurate request.

Why this matters

The event invoice brings together what the client owes, what was requested, and what was received. Review the balance and provider result before changing a schedule, recording a payment, or promising a refund.

Before you start

Open the correct event and invoice. Confirm the existing balance and any recorded payments.

In Releventful

  1. Open the event type's payment reminder item in Manage Portal Templates > Edit workflow.

  2. Click the timeline card, check recipient, unpaid amount and timing, then click Save draft and Review saved draft.

  3. Click Try the client portal and Review event impact; publish the approved reminder only after checking the sample invoice.

A useful decision

A manually recorded payment updates an invoice record but does not charge a card. Auto-pay requires an eligible authorized payment method; a reminder asks for action instead of collecting money.

Check the result

Review the updated invoice, payment schedule, and client balance. Confirm live payment or refund results with the provider.

Important to know

Editing an invoice record is different from collecting or returning money. Confirm online payment or refund results with the configured provider.
