The out-of-scope work you never invoiced. The card that expired in March. The ad spend you fronted and forgot to bill back. ChargeOver runs the billing your agency was never built to chase.

Across retainer clients, unbilled hours each a month, at $ an hour…
But it takes the first week of every month. Generating invoices. Catching the card that expired in March. Billing back the ad spend you fronted. Chasing the client who pays net-60 on net-30 terms. Three things leak money, every single month.
The "can you just" requests you do for free, because nobody ever put them on an invoice.
The clients you keep chasing every month while your cash sits in their accounts.
The retainer, the project, and the ad spend, living in three different tools that don't talk.
A spreadsheet and Stripe are fine for a handful of retainers. Then you add clients, ad-spend pass-through, a client who wants a different processor. The manual stitching that took an hour now takes a day — and the money that slips stops being a rounding error. ChargeOver is built for the agency you are becoming, not the one you started.
Each one is a real capability, not a claim. Turn it on once and stop touching it.
Add a one-off charge in two clicks. It lands on the next recurring invoice automatically. The "can you just" work finally gets billed instead of eaten.
Auto-charge cards and ACH, auto-retry the failures, auto-pause clients past 60 days. The follow-up stops being a human's job.
Retainer, project work, and the ad spend you fronted with your management fee on top. One bill, one cycle, synced to QuickBooks. No month-end spreadsheet.
Keep the processor you use, run more than one, or switch later without rebuilding a thing. One dispute can't freeze your cash.
Stripe, Authorize.Net, ACH and 50+ more gateways, several at once.
Retainer, project work, the ad spend you fronted, and your management fee on top. Itemized, taxed, and sent on schedule, then synced back to QuickBooks. This is the bill your client actually receives, generated without anyone touching a spreadsheet.

Stripe charges cards. It does not build your invoice, chase a failed payment, or put the retainer and the ad spend on one bill. ChargeOver runs the billing on top of the processor you already use.
If you have more than a handful of retainers and you still touch invoices by hand, it pays for itself in time, not headcount. Small agencies are most of who we work with.
Yes. Front it, bill it back, apply your percentage automatically, on the same invoice as the retainer.
Yes, run more than one, or switch later without rebuilding your subscriptions.
