Friendly Invoice Chase Letter

A warm, relationship-first way to chase a payment — for the clients you want to keep, when you’re confident the delay is just an oversight.

When to use this

Choose the friendly tone for good clients, long-standing relationships, or any time you’re fairly sure a missed payment is a genuine oversight rather than avoidance. It stays warm and assumes good faith throughout, so chasing never feels like an accusation.

Why it works

A friendly chase gets you paid without spending any goodwill — which matters when the client is one you’d happily work with again. It keeps the ask light and human while still being clear about what’s outstanding. NudgeBadger sets the tone and slots in your invoice details so it reads naturally, not templated.
