What makes an invoice valid — Your business name and contact details, the client's name, a unique invoice number, the issue date, a description of each item with its price, any tax, the total due, the due date and how to pay. The generator has a field for each one, so nothing gets missed.

After the first invoice

Saved clients and items

Pick the client and your usual services from a list instead of typing them again. Prices and tax settings come with them.

The next number, automatically

Invoice numbers follow on from the last one, so your records stay sequential for your accountant.

Send with tracking

Email the invoice from your account and see when the client opens it.

Reminders that run themselves

Switch reminders on for an invoice and a polite nudge goes out at 7, 14 and 30 days overdue, up to three per invoice. Leave them off for clients you would rather chase yourself.

Recurring invoices

Bill the same client weekly, fortnightly, monthly or yearly. Each one is prepared on schedule for you to review and send.

Get paid your way

Put bank transfer, PayID, PayPal, Venmo, Cash App, Zelle or your own payment link on the invoice. InvoiceSonic never takes a cut.

The approach that works

  1. 1

    Add your business details

    Enter your business name, address, email and phone. Add your ABN, VAT or tax number if you have one, and upload a logo if you want it on the PDF.

  2. 2

    Add the client

    Enter the client's business or personal name, their address and the email you will send the invoice to.

  3. 3

    Describe the work as line items

    One line per service or product: a description, the quantity or hours, and the unit price. The generator totals each line for you.

  4. 4

    Apply tax and set the terms

    Switch tax on if you charge GST, VAT or sales tax and enter the rate. Choose the due date, add your payment details and any notes, such as late-payment terms.

  5. 5

    Download or send

    Download the PDF and attach it to your own email, or create a free account to send it from InvoiceSonic with open tracking and reminders.

Frequently asked questions

How do I create an invoice?

Fill in five things: your business details, the client's details, a line for each item of work with its price, the tax you charge (if any) and the due date with your payment details. The free generator on this page lays those out in the standard invoice format and gives you a PDF.

Can I create an invoice for free?

Yes. Your first invoice downloads as a PDF with no account. A free account then saves 3 invoices a month with 1 tracked send and 1 automatic reminder. Paid plans remove the cap.

How do I create an invoice without Word or Excel?

Use a browser-based generator like this one. You type the details into a form rather than editing a document, the totals and tax are calculated for you, and the result is a PDF that looks the same on any device.

What should an invoice include?

The word Invoice, your business name and contact details, the client's name, a unique invoice number, the issue date, each item with a description and price, the tax amount if you charge tax, the total due, the due date and how to pay. Tax authorities add their own requirements: in Australia a tax invoice over A$82.50 must show your ABN and the GST amount.

How should I number my invoices?

Use a sequence that never repeats and never goes backwards, such as 0001, 0002 or 2026-001. The generator suggests the next number, and a free account keeps the sequence for you.

Can I create an invoice with GST, VAT or sales tax?

Yes. Turn tax on, enter your rate and the invoice shows the tax amount and the total including tax. Australian users get the tax invoice wording the ATO expects; UK and EU users can label the tax VAT.

Can I create an invoice on my phone?

Yes. The generator works in any mobile browser, and the InvoiceSonic app for iPhone and iPad creates, sends and tracks invoices from your account.
