How do I use Joist Payments?

As with everything we do at Joist, we try to keep it simple and easy-to-use.

  • If it’s ON, your client can pay you online with just a few clicks as soon as they receive your invoice.

How long does it take for payments to clear?

When your client pays you, the money arrives instantly in your free Joist Payments account.

It’s then transferred to your bank automatically, in most cases as early as the next day.

Do I have to use Joist Payments on all my invoices?

Absolutely NOT – you’re in complete control.

Use Joist Payments as much or as little as you want by switching Payments ON or OFF on each invoice you send through Joist.
