The best way for pool companies to handle recurring billing, invoicing, and online payments is to keep all three in a single system built around routes and recurring service, so completed work flows straight to an invoice and the payment collects itself.
Auto-generate invoices in bulk
Pool pros can stop building invoices one at a time by letting completed work flow directly into them — routine service, work orders, dosed chemicals, and installed items all included. Skimmer's invoice generator lets you produce hundreds of invoices in one billing run, send them by email or text, and sync to QuickBooks Online in real time so the books stay accurate without manual entry.
Give customers modern online payment options
Customers can settle invoices online through a self-serve portal that carries an embedded payment link. Skimmer billing accepts card, ACH, Apple Pay, and Google Pay, lets you store multiple methods on file, and can enable surcharging to offset credit card processing fees compliantly. Funds arrive via next-business-day payouts, so cash flow stays predictable.
Put recurring service on AutoPay
Because pool service is recurring work at consistent rates, it's an ideal fit for automatic payments. Customers can opt into AutoPay from an invoice or you can enroll them on their behalf, and pool pros who adopt it see up to a 44% revenue increase versus those who don't — because customers pay consistently and stay on the books longer instead of drifting on missed balances.
