5 Reasons to Automate Your Invoicing

Skip the hassle of manual invoicing—Alunta makes it easy and efficient.




Automatic invoicing

If you’ve ever spent hours slogging through invoices, you know it’s time-consuming and requires a lot of attention to detail. But what if you could eliminate most of the work? With Alunta, invoicing becomes effortless, allowing you to focus on running your business and creating value for your customers. Here are five solid reasons why automation is the way forward—and how Alunta makes it simple. Written by Oliver Lindebod, CEO of Alunta.com

1. Save time on tedious tasks

We all have parts of our work we don’t look forward to—especially in small businesses where you might wear many different hats. Invoicing often falls into the category of tasks that get postponed because it’s repetitive and dull. The good news is that with Alunta, you can stop spending time manually creating, sending, and following up on invoices. The system handles everything for you—from creation to payment monitoring. You can read more details about the automation of this process here. Imagine you run a catering company. Every month, you need to send invoices to your regular customers for their lunch plans. Instead of spending hours creating invoices manually, you set them up once in Alunta. From then on, they’re sent automatically every month. That’s the core of Alunta: Fully automated invoicing.   Benefits of saving time:

Eliminate repetitive manual tasks.
Spend more time growing your business or building client relationships.
Reduce the risk of human error.

2. Keep track of your revenue

It’s not always easy to know who has paid and who hasn’t. In the past, I worked with massive spreadsheets that were a chaotic mess. That’s actually why we built Alunta.com. With Alunta, you get a clear overview of all your invoices and payments. You can quickly see which customers are up-to-date and who still owes you—without having to dig through multiple systems. For example, an electrician with annual maintenance and service contracts could easily lose track of which customers are behind on payments. Alunta ensures all invoices are sent on time and automatically sends reminders to the electrician for any overdue payments. In fact, many industries that historically wouldn’t associate themselves with the word “subscription” have begun to see the benefits of this income model.   How Alunta helps you:

Consolidate all your revenue data on one platform.
Get automatic reminders for unpaid invoices.
Maintain a stable cash flow without extra work.

3. Provide a professional experience for your customers

Invoicing isn’t just about getting paid—it’s also about creating a professional experience for your customers. When your invoices are sent on time and are easy to understand, it sends a clear message that you have everything under control. Take the example of an electrician: I once had electrical work done in an apartment I was selling, and I had to chase the electrician to send me the invoice so the process could move forward. It could have been done faster and smarter! Another example: Imagine you run an online course platform where participants pay a fixed amount for access to materials. If invoices are unclear or arrive late, it can leave a bad impression. With Alunta, you ensure that customers always receive precise and professional invoices that are easy to pay.

Present a professional image of your business.
Offer a seamless and hassle-free payment experience.
Spend less time on customer service related to payments.

4. Achieve stable growth through automation

When your invoicing runs smoothly, you can focus on what matters most: growing your business. Automation means you can take on more customers without increasing your administrative workload. Yes, more customers mean more work—especially in service industries. But your administrative burden won’t increase! Alunta scales with your business, making it easy to grow. For example, a window cleaner with regular monthly customers can quickly expand their customer base using Alunta. Whether they have 10 or 100 customers, the system handles all payments automatically—without adding extra work for the window cleaner.   What this means for you:

Predictable income.
No extra workload, even as you grow.
Focus on development and customer satisfaction.

5. Integrate with your accounting system

The fifth and final reason is a bit of a bonus. Alunta integrates seamlessly with accounting systems like e-conomic (currently our only integration, but more are on the way), so all invoices are automatically recorded. This means you avoid duplicate work and gain more time to focus on what truly matters. If you run a trade business where many small invoices are created daily, the integration can save you hours each week. Alunta ensures that everything is accurately recorded, so you can concentrate on the job—not the numbers. Read the full description about subscription management here.   Benefits of integration:

Automatic bookkeeping without manual effort.
Reduced risk of errors.
Complete control over your finances.
