Beanbook
Late Payment of Commercial Debts Act — the law is on your side

Your client still hasn't paid. Beanbook chases them for you.

It also works out what they actually owe you — including the interest and fixed compensation the law lets you add on top. Most sole traders never claim it.

What is that late invoice really worth?

When a business pays you late, the law lets you add statutory interest plus a fixed fee per invoice. Put the numbers in and see the amount you could claim.

Estimate only, not legal advice. Statutory interest is 8% above the Bank of England base rate (assumed 4.25% here — adjust for the current rate); fixed compensation is £40 for invoices under £1,000, £70 up to £9,999.99, and £100 for £10,000 or more, per the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998. Applies to business-to-business invoices. Your actual entitlement can differ.

How Beanbook Chase works

  1. Tell us who owes you and how much. It takes about a minute.
  2. Beanbook sends a chase sequence in your name — polite first, then firm, then a formal statutory-interest notice if it comes to that.
  3. You get paid, or you get a clean paper trail that holds up if it goes further.
