#How PaidFast fits together
PaidFast is organized around a simple flow:
Customer → Quotation → Invoice → Payment → Receipt
You keep a list of customers and reusable items, raise a quotation or go straight to an invoice, send it over email or WhatsApp with a secure payment link, and PaidFast records the payment and issues a receipt automatically. Reminders chase anything overdue so you don't have to.
