Online payments for architects and engineers
Give architecture and engineering clients an online payment option. Keep the balance visible after you invoice for design work or an agreed project stage.
Free for 14 days — every feature, no credit card, no automatic charge.
Make payment easier. Keep the balance clear.
Check balances after a billing stage
Review confirmed payments before following up an outstanding amount.
Keep money separate from design status
Check the invoice rather than assuming a completed stage has been paid.
Stripe processes payment to your account. TimeLodge does not hold client funds or certify architectural or engineering work.
Connect an existing Stripe account or create a new one. Client funds go directly to that account. TimeLodge never holds the money and adds no payment fee. Stripe processing fees apply; payment methods and country availability depend on Stripe.

Questions about online payments for architects and engineers
- Does an online payment certify a project stage?
- No. Payment records relate to an invoice. They do not certify design approval, practical completion, or contractual milestones. Keep those decisions in your established project and professional records.
- Does an online payment certify the design stage?
- No. It records a payment against the invoice. Handle stage completion and certification under your appointment and professional requirements.
