Practical guide
Collect professional retainers and filing fees with clear references before regulated work begins.
Professional service payments need context. A client may be paying for a retainer, filing fee, company registration package, tax work, or document preparation.
Crypto can fit international founders, Web3 companies, and clients who already hold funds in stablecoins.
MakePay provides branded payment links that keep invoice references clear while the firm keeps its own compliance and engagement rules.

Guide
Why professional invoices need matter-level clarity
A payment can decide whether a firm starts work, submits filings, reserves advisory time, or pays a government fee on behalf of the client.
The request should identify the engagement or matter without exposing sensitive details unnecessarily.
Retainers unlock work
Teams can start after status and onboarding checks are complete.
Disbursements need separation
Filing fees and professional fees may need different accounting treatment.
Client confidentiality matters
Payment pages should be clear without oversharing legal details.
Guide
How MakePay fits professional firms
Use links for retainers, packages, balances, and recurring advisory invoices. Keep matter IDs or invoice numbers in the request.
Settlement routes toward the firm's wallet setup while the engagement, KYC, and client checks stay in the firm's own process.
Branded invoice links
A professional payment page looks more credible than raw wallet instructions.
Client references
Finance can reconcile by invoice, matter, or company formation package.
Direct settlement
Funds do not need to sit in a gateway custody balance.
Setup path
Start with one clear payment moment.
Step 1
Complete onboarding checks
Make sure engagement and compliance requirements are handled before payment if needed.
Step 2
Create the invoice link
Use matter, invoice, or package reference.
Step 3
Begin work after status
Start filing, drafting, or advisory work when payment and internal checks pass.
Step 4
Record for accounting
Keep payment, invoice, and client records aligned.
Questions
Plain answers before you launch.
Can law firms accept crypto automatically?
Only if their own rules and jurisdiction allow it. MakePay provides payment flow, not legal compliance.
Can filing fees be collected?
Yes, but the firm should label disbursements and service fees clearly.
