One of the most proven ways to avoid late payments from customers is to send a payment reminder email. Oh, wait! You must be thinking of the hassle of manually sending emails to every single customer. No worries! Here’s an easy solution for you. Now, you can send automatic payment request emails to all of your customers with the help of the Paymattic WordPress plugin. ## Why you should send a payment reminder email ![Payment Reminder Email](https://paymattic.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/payment-reminder-email-1-1024x538.png) In simple words, you should send invoice reminder emails, because it gets you paid on time. And as a business, you know how important it is to receive payments timely. Besides, it helps you make business operations smoother and you can make more planned decisions. Let’s assume, you are taking a pre-order but want your customers to make payments at a later date. It’s so uncomfortable to directly ask customers for the payments. So, a nicely worded payment reminder message right through the inbox of the customer is a professional courtesy. If you are in a business like insurance, gym center or any subscription-based venture, it’s so unprofessional to take payments from the customer without even reminding them. An advance reminder helps your customers avoid any payment issues or invoicing errors. Let’s see how you can set up a gentle payment reminder message for your customers using Paymattic. ## Set up an automatic payment reminder email It’s so handy to set up automatic payment reminder emails in WordPress.
