Evenings, yours.
Hamar® is the get-paid-faster tool for UK and Irish sole trades — quotes out, invoices sent, late payers chased automatically. Whether you’re on a ladder, at a laptop, or behind a chair.
QUOTE
Build and send in 90 seconds.
Saved templates, line items, VAT, your branding, your logo. PDF goes out, public link to accept online.
CHASE
Polite, firm, final — automatic.
Invoice goes overdue, the cadence runs without you — polite day 7, firm day 14, final day 21. Stop being the awkward one.
GET PAID
Card payments, no faff.
Stripe payment link on every invoice. Money lands in your bank, Hamar tracks the status.
Why we built this
You shouldn’t have to spend Sunday night chasing payment for last Thursday’s job.
UK small businesses are owed £70.4bn in unpaid invoices — around £12,357 per business — and construction and the trades are the worst-hit sector. 77% of subcontract projects see late payment; 46% of individual payments arrive late.
Hamar handles the quote, the invoice, the chase emails, and the receipts — so the only thing on your plate is the work you actually got paid for.
What’s in the box
Built for the way you actually work.
Send quotes + invoices via WhatsApp
One tap opens WhatsApp with a rich preview card in your business colours. Works on desktop and mobile — no WhatsApp Business API, zero per-message cost.
Digital business card + QR + vCard
Every user gets a shareable page at hamar.io/c/[your-slug]. Click-to-call, WhatsApp, save-to-contacts, print the QR on your van.
Insurance vault + renewal alerts
Upload PI, PL, cyber, tools policies. Hamar emails you at 30, 7, and 0 days before renewal. No more lapsed cover mid-job.
VAT threshold monitor
Rolling 12-month turnover on your dashboard with a progress bar to £90k. Nudge before you cross, not a HMRC letter after.
Site sign-in with QR (CDM-compliant)
Print the QR, stick it on the site door, everyone scans in. Visitor register captured with CSV export baked in.
Saved line item templates + rate card import
Tag your usual jobs as templates and add them to a quote in one click. Already have a rate card in Excel? Paste it in or upload a CSV — Hamar imports the lot in one go.
Recurring invoice schedules
Monthly retainer, weekly hours, quarterly maintenance — set it once, Hamar generates the invoice on the right day every time.
Online accept on every quote
Send a public link, the client clicks Accept, you get an email with their name, IP, and timestamp on file. Convert to invoice with one click.
Stripe payments end to end
Connect Stripe, every invoice gets a Pay button. The money goes straight to your bank — Hamar doesn’t hold it. Card brands, Apple Pay, Google Pay all supported.
Auto-chase that keeps its dignity
Polite at day 7, firm at day 14, final at day 21. Per-invoice override if a client’s a friend. Cron runs daily so you don’t have to remember.
Your brand on every PDF
Upload your logo, set your accent colour, customise your invoice prefix. Quotes and invoices look like your company, not a template.
Client cards with full history
Every client has a page showing what they’ve quoted, invoiced, paid, and what’s outstanding. Plus internal-only notes for the next time you speak.
CSV export when you need it
Quotes, invoices, clients — all exportable. For your accountant, your spreadsheet, your peace of mind.
