DueTrail
Review-first invoice-to-cash software: imports create paused collection cases and nothing sends until your team approves it. It connects to Xero, QuickBooks Online, Sage, FreeAgent and Moneybird, read-only unless you switch on notes on the invoice (or takes a CSV from anything else) and re-checks the ledger right before every reminder, so nobody is chased for an invoice they have already paid. It can work out statutory late-payment interest and compensation (UK or EU rules, or your own terms) and quote them in reminders and the portal. A customer statement, listing every open invoice in one email, goes through the same preview-and-approve step, or goes out monthly once automation is on. In the customer portal a customer can promise a date, propose paying in instalments, say they have paid, or raise a question, and each of those pauses the chasing. An agreed payment plan holds reminders while the instalments arrive and lapses on its own if one is missed. Two workspace prices (€49 Starter up to 75 active cases, €149 unlimited Team), unlimited users, pure software (not a debt-collection agency, no lending).
Best for: Small B2B service teams — agencies, consultancies, IT services, recruitment (roughly 10–200 people) — that want consistent, controlled follow-up without per-seat pricing.
Satago
A UK tool that combines credit-risk insights, automated credit control (invoice chasing) and invoice finance, integrating with Sage, Xero and QuickBooks.
Best for: UK SMEs (and the accountants and brokers serving them) wanting chasing plus credit checks in one place.
When to choose which
Satago or DueTrail?
Choose Satago if…
- You're a UK SME that also wants real-time credit checks in the same tool.
- You may want invoice financing alongside chasing (priced separately).
- You run KashFlow or another package DueTrail does not connect to: Satago lists KashFlow alongside Sage, Xero, QuickBooks and FreeAgent, and advertises 300+ integrations in total.
Choose DueTrail if…
- You want review-first control over every live send rather than automated credit control alone.
- You want a promise-to-pay customer portal and a full case timeline for each overdue invoice.
- You want simple euro pricing (€49 Starter, €149 unlimited Team) and CSV import from any accounting tool, not a UK-finance bundle.

Start in Review Mode, connect Xero, QuickBooks, Sage, FreeAgent or Moneybird (or import a CSV from anything else), and explore the queue before anything sends. No sales call required.
