Freelancers: Stop Losing Track of Client Payments
Canadian freelancers receive payments via e-Transfer constantly. Here's how to know exactly who's paid, who hasn't, and what you're owed.
You invoiced a client three weeks ago. They said they'd pay via e-Transfer. Did they? You're not sure, so you open your email and search "INTERAC." Forty-seven results. You start scrolling.
This is the freelancer payment tracking experience in Canada, and it's broken.
The Problem With "I'll Just Check My Email"
When you have a handful of clients, email search works fine. But as your freelance business grows, the cracks show fast:
- Multiple payments from the same client blend together in your inbox
- Different clients send similar amounts, making it hard to tell payments apart
- You can't quickly see outstanding invoices without cross-referencing another system
- End-of-month reconciliation takes an hour instead of five minutes
What Good Payment Tracking Looks Like
Good tracking answers three questions instantly:
- Who has paid me this month?
- Who hasn't paid yet?
- How much total income have I received?
If answering any of these takes more than ten seconds, your system isn't working.
How TransferLog Solves This
Connect your Gmail or Outlook account. TransferLog finds every e-Transfer notification and pulls out the sender name, amount, and date.
From there:
- Filter by client name to see their full payment history
- Tag by project to track income per engagement
- See monthly totals at a glance on your dashboard
- Export clean records for invoicing, taxes, or your own sanity
The Two-Minute Setup
No bank credentials needed. No CSV uploads. No manual data entry.
Connect your email, and TransferLog handles the rest. Every future e-Transfer is logged automatically.
