Invoice smarter. Get paid faster.
Create professional invoices and quotes in 2 minutes, and bill in 15 currencies — Naira, Cedis, Shillings, Dollars, Pounds and more. Your clients get a payment page, not just a PDF, and when they pay by transfer they tell you in one tap.
Sound familiar?
Invoicing shouldn't feel this hard
PDF sent. No reply.
You spent an hour formatting a quote in Word. You emailed a PDF. Now you're waiting — and don't even know if they opened it.
Chasing payments on WhatsApp
Sending "Hey, did you get my invoice?" doesn't feel professional. And it rarely gets you paid faster.
No idea what's outstanding
Between multiple clients and projects, it's hard to know who owes what and which invoices are overdue.
Clerqpay is invoicing software for freelancers and small businesses in Africa. You send an invoice, your client gets a page they can pay on — with the PDF attached for their records — and you can see when it was opened and when it was paid, in fifteen currencies: Naira, Cedis, Shillings, Rand, Dollars, Pounds, Euros and more.
Simple by design
From written to paid, in four steps
Write the invoice
Add a client, the line items and your bank details. Save the client once and the next invoice takes seconds. Quotes work the same way, with optional items your client can switch on or off.
Under two minutesSend a page they can pay on
Your client gets a link to a page showing what they owe and how to pay it, in whichever of the 15 currencies you billed. Naira invoices take card, transfer or USSD; the rest pay by bank transfer. The PDF comes attached for their records — the link is what gets paid, and there is no account to create.
Works on their phoneConfirm the transfer
Money sent by bank transfer arrives where no software can see it. Your client tells you they have paid and gives the reference; you check it against your account and approve. Card payments settle themselves.
You approve, not the clientStop chasing
You can see when an invoice was opened. Reminders go out on the schedule you set, in the tone you pick, and stop the moment it is paid. Receipts are issued automatically for every payment.
Reminders send themselvesWho it's for
Built for the people who do the work.
Designers, developers, consultants, studios — and anyone billing the same clients every month. If you send work out and then wait to be paid, Clerqpay was made for you. No accounting degree, no clunky software. Just invoices your clients can pay, and follow-ups you never have to write.
- Agencies & studios (3–15 people)
- Solo professionals billing companies

Before you connect a bank account
The questions we would ask too
Asking someone to route their income through software they found last week is a big ask. Here is everything we would want to know first.
Your money never passes through us
Paystack takes the payment and settles it to your bank account — Clerqpay is never in the middle and never holds a balance for you. Paystack settles card payments to your bank account, usually the next working day. Your first payout after connecting or changing bank details takes an extra day.
What it costs, before anyone pays
Paystack charges 1.5% + ₦100, capped at ₦2,000 per payment. Clerqpay adds 1.5% on top, also capped at ₦2,000 per payment. You choose whether to absorb it or pass it to your client, and either way it is shown before anyone pays. Bank transfers cost nothing.
Who you are dealing with
Clerqpay is built and run by Griida Innovative Solutions. Email hello@clerqpay.com and a person answers, within one working day.
Your data stays yours
Two-factor authentication on every plan, not just the paid ones. Export every invoice, client, payment and receipt to CSV whenever you want, and delete your account and its data on request. Nothing is held hostage to a subscription.
What your client actually sees
A page with what they owe and how to pay it — no account, no login, no app to install. They never see your other clients, your other invoices, or anything about your business you did not put on the invoice.
The longer answers
Money custody, settlement, fees, account security, data export and deletion — written out in full.

Features
Everything you need to get paid
No spreadsheets. No chasing. No invoice your client can't pay from. Just clean, professional invoicing that works the way you do.
Bank transfers you can confirm
A transfer lands in your bank, where no software can see it. Your client taps “I have paid”, sends the amount and reference, and it waits in your queue until you approve it — nothing is marked paid on their word alone.
Professional invoices
Four polished templates — clean, corporate, warm, bold — and 15 currencies, from Naira and Cedis to Dollars, Pounds and Euros. Looks right before you send the first one.
Quotes & proposals
Send quotes your client accepts online — optional line items and all — then convert to an invoice in one click.
A page they can pay on
Every invoice gets its own link, with the PDF attached for their records — no account to create. Naira invoices take card, transfer or USSD through Paystack; every other currency pays by bank transfer, confirmed in the app.
Recurring & reminders
Auto-generate invoices on a schedule, and let automatic email reminders chase payment — friendly first, firm when it matters.
Smart discounts & tax
Flat or percentage discounts, time-limited early-pay incentives, and a VAT + withholding-tax (WHT) engine.
Receipts & reports
Receipts generate automatically on payment, and AR-aging reports show exactly who owes you and for how long.
Payment links
Create a shareable payment link in seconds. Send over WhatsApp, email, or anywhere — no invoice needed.
AI agent access
Connect Claude, Cursor or any AI tool to your account through the MCP API and manage invoices hands-free.

FAQ
Questions people actually ask
What is Clerqpay?
Clerqpay is invoicing software for freelancers and small businesses in Africa. You create an invoice, your client gets a page they can pay on — with the PDF attached for their records — and you can see when it was viewed and when it was paid. It handles quotes, recurring invoices, reminders, receipts and bank-transfer confirmation in one place.
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. The Free plan needs no card and no trial period — you sign up, verify your email with a six-digit code, and send your first invoice. You only enter payment details if you decide to upgrade.
What happens when a client pays by bank transfer?
A transfer lands in your bank account, where no software can see it, so your client tells you instead. On their invoice they tap "I have paid" and give the amount, date and reference, with a receipt attached if they have one. It arrives in your Payments queue for you to approve or reject. Nothing is marked paid until you approve it.
Do my clients need an account?
No, and they never create a password. To see all their invoices in one place they enter the email address your invoices go to and we send them a six-digit code. A single invoice needs nothing at all — the link in the email opens it.
What currencies are supported?
Fifteen: Naira, Cedis, Kenyan and Tanzanian and Ugandan Shillings, Rand, CFA Franc, Dirham, US, Canadian and Australian Dollars, Pounds, Euros, Yen and Swiss Francs. Your client sees the amount in whichever currency you billed them, and the invoice, the payment page and the receipt all match.
What do the plans cost?
Free is ₦0 and always will be. Pro is ₦1,500 a month or ₦10,800 a year. Business is ₦2,500 a month or ₦21,600 a year. Paying annually is cheaper than twelve monthly payments on both paid plans.
