Email notifications
Email alerts are available on every plan, sent fromnotifications@myclerkbook.com. There are eight types:
| Notification | When it fires |
|---|---|
| Upcoming expense — 3 days | 3 days before a recurring expense is due |
| Upcoming expense — 1 day | 1 day before a recurring expense is due |
| Trial ending — 3 days | 3 days before a trial ends |
| Trial ending — 1 day | 1 day before a trial ends |
| Income reminder | Expected recurring income hasn’t been logged |
| Cash flow alert | Monthly expenses exceed monthly income |
| Weekly summary | Every Monday |
| Monthly summary | The 1st of each month |
SMS & WhatsApp
Premium users can receive any of the eight notification types via SMS and WhatsApp through Twilio, configured per notification type. You might keep weekly summaries on email but route day-before expense alerts to SMS, for example. A configurable emergency alert threshold can trigger an SMS regardless of time for a critical event — a single transaction or daily net balance crossing an amount you set.To receive WhatsApp alerts, link your number under Account → Connections.
