Nue makes collecting payments effortless by automatically generating secure, branded payment links for every invoice. Customers can pay instantly using their preferred method, right from a user-friendly payment page. Collections move faster, your team does less manual work, and customers enjoy a modern, hassle-free payment experience.
Traditional invoicing creates friction at every step, making it harder for your team to get paid on time and adding stress for both you and your customers.
The challenges are real:
- Customers struggle to find payment instructions or navigate outdated portals
- Payments get delayed, which affects cash flow projections
- Finance teams spend too much time chasing late payments and fixing errors
- Managing different payment channels increases confusion and workload
- Manual processes create bottlenecks that slow down revenue collection
The result is more hassle for everyone and a payment process that doesn't keep up with modern business needs.
Nue integrates with Stripe to provide two distinct approaches to payment collection: Stripe Invoicing and Nue Payment Links. While Stripe Invoicing manages the entire flow within Stripe, Nue Payment Links let you handle invoice generation, delivery, and payment tracking directly in Nue while leveraging Stripe's payment processing.
When an invoice is activated in Nue, the system automatically generates a unique payment link using Stripe Payments. This link gets added to the invoice record and included in an email to the recipient, complete with a clear "Pay Now" button. Customers can pay immediately by credit card, debit, or ACH without any account setup needed.
Nue's payment system works smartly to collect payments:
Default Payment Method Charging: Stripe automatically charges the customer's default payment method on file, such as a credit card or ACH account, when available.
Fallback to Links: If no default payment method exists, the payment link is sent via email for customer self-service payment.
Subscription-Specific Management: Each subscription can have a different payment method, providing flexible payment options for customers with multiple services.
Automatic Recurring Charges: Recurring invoices tied to subscriptions get charged automatically using the designated payment method for that subscription.
Payment links include configurable security features:
Expiration Policies: Administrators can configure links to expire immediately after first access or after a specified number of days, based on security requirements.
Direct Access: Links accessed directly from within the Nue application remain valid indefinitely and do not expire.
Link Regeneration: Finance teams can easily regenerate expired links when needed for customer convenience.
PCI-Compliant Processing: All payment processing is handled by Stripe's PCI-compliant infrastructure.
Nue maintains complete visibility into payment activity:
Transaction Hub: All payments, refunds, and credits are tracked within Nue's transaction management system, keeping records up to date automatically.
Integration Health Monitoring: Webhook monitoring ensures reliable data synchronization between Nue and Stripe.
Manual Payment Recording: Offline payments like wire transfers or checks can be recorded in Nue for complete payment tracking.
Collections Management: Refunds, credits, late fees, cancellations, and write-offs are all managed directly in Nue and kept in sync with Stripe.
- Automatic Generation: Secure payment links are automatically generated for every activated invoice.
- Stripe Integration: Seamlessly integrates with Stripe for comprehensive payment processing.
- Multiple Payment Methods: Supports various payment methods, including credit cards, debit, and ACH.
- Complete Tracking: Tracks all payments, refunds, and credits within a single system.
- PCI-Compliant Security: Ensures PCI-compliant security with time-limited, single-use links.
Customers pay instantly using their preferred method while your team spends less time on manual follow-ups.

If your business has:
- Variable charges that require flexible payment collection
- Regular billing cycles that benefit from automation
