Make sure you can quickly remove the script the moment the client pays.

In plain English

not-paid is a small JavaScript snippet you add to a client's website when they have not paid you. Once added, it gradually reduces the opacity (visual transparency) of the entire page, causing the site to slowly fade away over a set number of days. You configure a due date and a deadline in days, and each day that passes without payment makes the site a little more invisible, until it disappears completely. The script is loaded by placing a single file in the HTML head section. A WordPress plugin version and community-made ports for Android, Windows Forms, Flutter, iOS, and Angular are also available.
