Invoices and customer debts

Stop losing money to “I go pay you tomorrow.”

Credit keeps customers coming back, but unrecorded credit makes it harder to track your money. ProfitNaija records who owes you, how much and since when, and lets you share a clear customer invoice.

Credit sales that do not disappear

When a customer takes goods on credit or pays only part, record the sale against their name. The unpaid balance is tracked as a debt instead of living on a torn page.

  • Full, part and credit payments
  • Balances tracked per customer
  • Record repayments as they come in

Invoices your customers can open

Create an invoice for a customer showing what they bought and what they owe, and share it so they can view it. A clear invoice looks professional and makes the amount hard to argue about.

Keep track of customer repayments

Record repayments against the original credit sale instead of counting the money as another sale. The outstanding balance reduces as payments are recorded, helping you see what is paid and what is still due.

See every outstanding debt at a glance

View the total owed to your business and which customers owe it. Follow up with the right people before small debts grow into lost money.

Common questions

Can customers view an invoice without the app?
Invoices can be shared with customers for viewing, so they do not need their own ProfitNaija account.
Does a credit sale still reduce my stock?
Yes. The goods have left your shop, so the product quantity reduces just like a paid sale, while the unpaid amount is tracked as a debt.
Will ProfitNaija collect debts for me?
No. ProfitNaija keeps the record and gives you invoices and balances to share. Collecting is still between you and your customer.
