How to Create an Invoice in 4 Steps
Sending a clear, professional invoice is the fastest way to get paid without back-and-forth. Here is how to put one together using the generator above.
Add your business and client details
Enter your business name and address, then your client's billing details. Accurate contact information keeps your records clean and makes sure the invoice reaches the right person.
Set your invoice number and dates
Give the invoice a unique number so you can track it later, then set the issue date and the due date. Clear payment terms up front are one of the simplest ways to get paid on time.
List your services or products
Add a line item for each service or product, with a description, quantity, and rate. Subtotals, taxes, and the total due are calculated for you automatically as you type.
Download your PDF invoice
Review the live preview, then export a print-ready PDF you can email to your client straight away. There is no signup required and no limit on how many invoices you create.
When Should You Send an Invoice?
Send an invoice once the goods have been delivered or the work has been completed, unless you have agreed on a deposit or a milestone schedule up front. For longer projects, many freelancers invoice at agreed checkpoints rather than waiting until the very end, which keeps cash flow steady.
If you need to quote a price before starting work, send an estimate or quote instead — an invoice is a request for payment, so it should follow the work, not precede it. Once your client pays, keep the invoice on file as your record of the transaction.
