Hey ProductHunters! Excited to launch a new and hugely improved Bonsai Payments here. We built this with a single goal in mind: get freelancers paid on time. Although Payments can be used independently, it’s integrated deeply with our freelance contract builder. Once your work contract is signed, you can automatically generate and enforce a payment schedule. This includes tracking how the client interacts with your invoices, as well as smart & automated reminders to nudge the client to pay on time. You can get paid by credit card (2.9% + $0.30), ACH (US only, $5 flat fee), or bitcoin (no fee). On top of these standard processing fees, Bonsai charges only $1 per completed invoices. Cheers!

@matttbrown Hi Matt, a welcome integration! Do you know if (or when) you'll be supporting payments for those in the UK? It would be super beneficial for me and many others I'm sure. Thanks for all the hard work thus far!
Matt Brown
@eabfairman We support credit card payments in the UK right now and are working on other lower cost options as well.

Is the $5 ACH per transaction or is that a batch fee? For example, I submit 20 ACH requests at the same time, would it be $5 + $20($1 fee x 20) or $100 + $20?

@joefitness @matttbrown Hi Matt, similar to Joe, is the transaction fee charged on the client side or contractor end? And the $1 invoice fee? We work with a lot of contractors, and ACH from Gusto takes more than 4-5 business days, which causes a lot of problem

Great idea and execution @mattbrown - did you guys have an experience that prompted you to make this?

Love the fact that Bitcoin is integrated. Was looking for something like this recently and didn't find anything that had bitcoin directly as a payment option. Thank you!

This is awesome - we're building something that could compliment this really well (a way for freelancers to liquidate their accounts receivable fast to help grow their business) - check out invoice factoring I'd love to know what you think

I absolutely love this app! Just sad that I found it around the same time as I stopped freelancing. Please make something like this for agencies!

@joeldrapper How would you like it to be if it's built for agencies?

Awesome product that is very simple to use. You sign up and you're off and running with great invoicing and contract tools.

So you would need a stripe account etc?
Matt Brown
@wilsonpeng8 Yep, Stripe account is required but only takes a minute to sign up. We're also adding paypal this week.
