ConstructionOnline™ continues to evolve with new features and targeted enhancements designed to streamline everyday construction workflows. This week’s release introduces CO™ Pay—construction payment requests powered by ConstructionOnline—as well as expanded Change Order reporting options, improved Classification Markup handling, and more.
New: CO™ Pay
CO Pay is now live in ConstructionOnline, bringing payment requests and online payment processing directly into the same platform where construction teams already manage project invoices.
With CO Pay, construction companies can:
- Request Payment from an Invoice: Create a payment request tied directly to a ConstructionOnline Invoice and send clients a secure checkout link.
- Accept Online Payments: Give clients the option to pay by credit card or ACH bank transfer.
- Offer Flexible Payment Requests: Create multiple payment requests against a single Invoice to support deposits, progress payments, and remaining balances.
- Keep Invoice Balances Updated: Completed payments are automatically recorded against the related Invoice, updating paid and remaining balances without duplicate entry.
- Track Payment Activity: Keep payment requests, completed payments, and related financial activity connected to the applicable Invoice and Project.
- Manage Payments After Collection: CO Pay also provides tools for managing refunds, disputes, and payouts after a payment has been processed.
Once a company completes the one-time setup and approval process, payment requests can be sent directly to clients from ConstructionOnline.
