Frequently asked questions

What is milestone billing?+

Milestone billing splits a project total into stages such as deposit, demo, rough in, cabinet install, and punch list. Each stage becomes its own separately payable invoice. It matches how construction actually flows and is the reason established contractors never ask for 50 percent upfront.

How do clients pay my invoices?+

Renovate sends the invoice as a secure link. Clients pay online with a card or bank transfer through Stripe Connect. Funds land directly in your bank.

Can I send reminders automatically?+

Yes. Set a reminder cadence per invoice, such as 3 days after due, 7 days, 14 days. Renovate sends branded emails from your business name until the invoice is marked paid.

Do you support ACH or bank transfer?+

If you enable ACH or bank transfer inside Stripe Connect, those payment methods appear on the invoice page alongside cards.

Does the invoice look good on mobile?+

Every invoice is a mobile responsive branded page with your logo and a pay button. Clients tap Pay now, complete payment on the secure page, and it's done. No PDF, no printing, no mailing.

What if I need to send a receipt?+

Once the payment provider confirms the transaction, the invoice flips to paid and a receipt with your logo is generated automatically. No manual send required.
