Frequently asked questions
How much advance should I take?
Common practice is 20โ30% for appointments and 30โ50% for events or custom work. Mention your cancellation and refund rule in the note.
Is it safe to share my UPI ID and QR?
Yes. A UPI ID or QR can only receive money; nobody can debit your account with it. Never share your UPI PIN or OTP. Use a business / merchant UPI ID for business collections, because personal UPI IDs can have limits on commercial receipts.
Is this tool free? Do I need to sign up?
Yes, it is completely free with no login and no limit on entries. Signing up for a free FastFee account is optional and adds sync across devices, team access, automatic reminders and online payment collection.
