Take a commission with a progress link
Updated 25 Jul 2026
Commission clients keep asking "how's it going?". Give each one a private progress link and post updates as you paint — they just open it.
1Create the commission
On the Commissions tab, tap New commission. Give it a title, and optionally the client's name, WhatsApp number and agreed price. Canvas generates a private progress link for it.
3Post progress as you work
Tap + Add update, snap where the piece is today, and add a line. Each update appears on the client's link, newest first, with the balance due shown.
💡 When there's news, tap Send update on the commission to open WhatsApp with the link ready — one message instead of re-attaching photos.
