LawnBeast invoices can now be paid online

Every open or partially paid invoice in LawnBeast now carries its own pay link — your customer opens it and pays by card, with no login, no account, no password and no app. The link runs on your own LawnBeast site and the money goes to your own Stripe account, so the one thing standing between you and this is finishing Stripe Connect onboarding in LawnBeast.

01Your customer opens a link and pays by card

The link looks like https://yourcompany.lawnbeast.com/pay/<invoice-id>/ — your own LawnBeast subdomain by default, or your own custom domain if you're on a paid plan and we've set that up for you. Your customer taps it, the page opens, they pay by card. There's no sign-in step and nothing for them to create.

The page is branded to your business, not to us. The amount charged is exactly the invoice's outstanding balance, and there's no box for the customer to type a different number into.

Each link belongs to one invoice on one business's site, and it won't open anywhere else. That's deliberate — your customers' invoices stay on your site and nobody else's.

The pay page for invoice #INV001189 from Boss Mows: the business name, a $409.19 balance, the due date, four job line items with tax, and a card form with a Pay $409.19 button
What your customer opens from the email — your business name, the balance, what it's for, and a card form. Their whole job is: check the amount, enter a card. Screenshots throughout use a demo account.

03The payment posts to the invoice by itself

You don't mark anything by hand:

  • The invoice updates. It moves to Paid, or Partially Paid if a balance remains from other payments, and the paid date is stamped.
  • The reference is recorded. Stripe's payment reference is saved on the invoice, so you can match it against your Stripe payouts.
  • The activity log gets an entry. Every payment writes one.
  • Your customer gets a receipt. Stripe emails it to them, and the Pay Online button in the invoice email turns into View Receipt once the invoice is paid.
  • A PDF is always there. Your customer can download a PDF receipt from the pay link at any time — the same document your own invoice PDF produces.

The money goes to your Stripe account through Stripe Connect. LawnBeast doesn't hold it.

Your side of the same payment — marked Paid, dated, balance down to zero, and logged under Recent Activity. Nothing here was typed in by hand.
