How it works
Keep every expected payment in one clear ledger
Add the client or platform, amount and due date. SideLedger keeps the records together so you can see what is coming up and what has crossed its due date without rebuilding the same spreadsheet every week.
Add a payment record
Record an invoice or expected platform payout with its name, amount and due date.
Read the ledger at a glance
Your dashboard shows how many records you have saved, what is due this month and the next date on the calendar.
Choose how to stay informed
Account notifications can be delivered by email. Text alerts are optional and require a separate confirmation.
Built around the record, not the notification
- Create your account. Choose Plus for up to three saved records or Pro for an unlimited ledger.
- Add the source. Use a client name for an invoice or the platform name for an expected payout.
- Enter the amount and date. The record appears in your private account ledger immediately.
- Review the dashboard. See this month's due records and the next upcoming date without searching through email or several gig platforms.
- Add or remove records as work changes. Plus supports three saved records; Pro supports an unlimited number.
SideLedger does not connect to your bank, move money, collect an invoice or contact a client. It organizes the information you enter into your own account.
A record contains
Only the details needed for the ledger
- Source
- Client or platform
- Amount
- The expected payment
- Due date
- The date you want to track
- Reminder choice
- Due-date and past-due notices
Useful for more than one kind of payment
Freelance invoices
Keep client amounts and due dates together when projects have different payment terms.
Contract work
Track expected payments across several clients without mixing them into a personal bill calendar.
Platform payouts
Save the amount and expected date for a gig or freelance platform payout in the same ledger.
Smart reminders
Get a heads-up when a payment needs attention
Turn on email or text notifications for the records you want to watch. SideLedger can notify you as a due date arrives or a payment becomes past due, so you do not have to check the dashboard every day.
Useful context in every reminder
Notifications use the client or platform, amount and due date already saved in your ledger, so you can immediately identify the record that needs attention.
