RetainerBase exists because the alternative was another awkward “hey, just checking on that invoice” text. We've sent too many of those.
Running a freelance business means doing the work and chasing the money. The second part is exhausting. We built RetainerBase to automate the uncomfortable stuff — invoices, reminders, payment collection — so you can focus on what actually earns you money.
Your clients deserve a professional experience. You deserve to get paid on time. Neither of those should require a spreadsheet, four follow-up emails, and a prayer. RetainerBase makes both happen automatically.
Every feature ships only when it makes the workflow genuinely faster — not just more impressive.
Stripe Connect means payments go directly to you. We never hold or touch your funds.
Not enterprises. Not agencies with 50-person finance teams. You — doing the work solo.
