Payments apply automatically to the correct invoice in Ajera, so your accounting team stops doing the same work twice and gets time back for higher-value tasks.

Ajera Payments Features
Automate Your Accounts Receivable Process
Electronic Client Payments
Include a “Pay Now” link directly in client invoice emails, directing them to a secure portal where they can pay via ACH or debit/credit card with no login required and no friction between your client and a completed payment.
Client Prepayments
Clients can submit prepayments against future invoices through the same secure portal before work begins. Those funds are tracked in Ajera and applied to invoices as they're issued, so advance billing is handled systematically, not through manual tracking or email threads.
Automatic Payment Reconciliation
The moment a payment is received, it's matched and applied to the correct invoice in Ajera automatically. No manual entry, no batch processing, no end-of-day reconciliation run. Your books are current in real time.
Prepayment & Refund Management
When a client overpays, requests a refund, or has a prepayment that needs reallocation, your team manages it directly in Ajera with a full transaction record and no need to reconcile across separate systems. Exceptions get resolved in minutes, not days.
