Getting the job done isn’t the hard bit. The hard bit is the paperwork after: writing up a quote from memory on Sunday night, converting it to an invoice next Friday, chasing the customer three weeks later, working out how much VAT you owe, remembering which jobs are on CIS. It eats evenings.
Checker’s quotes and invoices do the boring bits for you. You type in what you did, the app handles the tax, the branding, the payment link and the chase. Most engineers get paid two weeks faster inside the first month.

Quotes
Pick the customer, tap in line items, add your terms, hit send. The quote goes out as a branded PDF with your logo on it, and a big Accept button the customer taps to say yes. You’ll know the second they’ve accepted because Checker pings you.
Invoices
Job done? Open the accepted quote, tap Convert to Invoice, done. Everything copies over — line items, customer, VAT setup, your terms. Add a Pay Now link and the customer can settle it from their phone in seconds.
Tax done properly
Working under a main contractor? Tick the CIS box on the customer’s file and every invoice going to them gets the reverse charge wording, the right VAT treatment and a note the customer’s accountant will recognise. HMRC-compliant, no lawyer needed.
Standard rate, reduced rate, zero rate, exempt — pick per line item. Checker adds it up, shows the split on the PDF and hands you a clean VAT report at the end of the quarter that Xero, QuickBooks or Sage will swallow without a fuss.
Building work under DRC? Toggle it on and the invoice shows the customer they account for the VAT, not you. The wording HMRC wants is already in there.
Turn VAT off in one tap and every invoice goes out clean. You can flip it back on the day you register.
Payments
Stripe card link on the invoice for online payments. Zettle chip-and-pin on the doorstep for the cash-in-hand jobs. BACS details on the PDF for the ones who like a bank transfer. Deposits and staged payments for bigger installs. All tracked against the job so you always know who owes what.
Chasing on autopilot
Set the polite reminder for day 7, the firm one for day 14, the final one for day 21. Checker sends them for you, from your business email, with a fresh pay-now link every time. The awkward chase happens without you having to be the bad guy — and 90% of the time, the second reminder does the trick.
Works with your accountant
Every invoice you send in Checker lands in your accounts software automatically. Your accountant stops hassling you for missing invoices and you stop paying them to type things in twice.
FAQ
Yes. Every invoice includes your VAT number when relevant, an invoice number, invoice date, tax point, a proper line-item breakdown and the correct wording for CIS or DRC when those apply. Fully HMRC-compliant.
Connect Stripe (free to set up, standard card fees apply) and every invoice you send has a Pay Now button. The customer taps it, pays by card or Apple Pay, and the invoice marks itself as paid in Checker.
Both. Tell Checker which one you are in setup and the invoice layout, tax handling and legal wording all adjust to suit.
Yes. Set a percentage or a fixed amount on the quote, and the customer pays the deposit when they accept. The balance rolls onto the final invoice automatically.
No. Xero, QuickBooks and Sage sync is included in the Checker subscription. You pay your accounts software provider directly for their own account — Checker doesn’t add a middleman fee.
