What is an accounts receivable aging schedule?
An AR aging schedule sorts every invoice a retailer owes you by how overdue it is — Current, 1–30 days, 31–60, 61–90, and 90+ days past due. It shows at a glance which dollars are healthy and which are turning into bad debt. ShelfSpace builds and updates this schedule automatically across every retailer you sell to, so you always know exactly what's late and how late.
How do I collect from a dispensary that won't pay?
Put the invoice in one system, track how far past due it is, and send steady, automatic reminders that end in a one-click payment link. ShelfSpace does exactly that — the retailer gets a Pay Now email with no login and no signup, enters their bank and routing number, signs on their phone, and a real digital check is generated on their account, payable to you. You don't have to keep chasing.
Can you just run collections for me?
Yes. We run the dunning and collections for you — the invoices loaded in one place, the AR aging schedule kept live, and the standing Pay Now links and escalating follow-up cadence sent in your name, on schedule, until the retailer pays. You set the terms; we do the chasing. Prefer to run it yourself? You can — but most vendors hand it off and let us run it. Talk to us and we'll scope it.
Does the retailer need a ShelfSpace account to pay me?
No. They pay from a single link in the reminder email — no login, no signup, no app to download. They enter their bank and routing number, sign on their phone, and submit. It's closer to a card checkout than an onboarding.
What does it cost me?
Seeing what you're owed is free — every overdue invoice in one place and a live AR aging schedule across every retailer you sell to. We run the rest for you — standing pay links, escalating dunning, partial payments, installment plans, and ACH collect — scoped to your operation. Pricing lives on our pricing page. Talk to us and we'll scope it.
Is this legal and safe in cannabis?
Yes. What gets generated is a real digital check drawn on the retailer's bank account, payable to you — the same check they'd write by hand, just digital. ShelfSpace never holds or moves the money, which is exactly why it works where card processors and payment apps get shut off.
How fast do I get paid?
As soon as the retailer clicks Pay Now and submits, a digital check is generated payable to you. You deposit it by phone or print it, the same as any other check. There's no processor in the middle holding funds for a release window.
What if the retailer still won't pay?
You're no worse off than today. The dunning can run automatically so you're not the one chasing, partial payments and installment plans give a slow payer a way to clear the balance, and everything you're owed stays tracked in one place with a live aging schedule instead of a spreadsheet.
