No signup, no watermark, no percentage taken.

How to create an invoice online
Three steps from blank page to a professional PDF.
Step 1
Add your business and client details
Fill in who's billing and who's paying — that's the minimum a legally solid invoice needs.
- Your business name & ABN — Shown on the invoice header so clients know exactly who to pay.
- Bill-to client details — Name is enough to start — add billing and service addresses for bigger jobs.
- Invoice number & dates — Auto-generated number, issue date and due date — editable if you have your own system.
Step 2
Add line items — watch the invoice build itself
Every line you type appears instantly in a live preview of the finished invoice.
- Itemised lines with qty × price — Clear descriptions get approved (and paid) faster than lump sums.
- Totals calculated automatically — Subtotal, GST/tax and total update as you type — no broken spreadsheet formulas.
Step 3
Download, send, and get paid
Grab a clean PDF or email it directly. Your payment details go right on the invoice.
- Stripe + a free bank option — Offer both — clients who pay by bank cost you 0% in fees.
- Professional PDF, no watermark — A real record for your accountant, tax time, and any dispute.
- Payment terms on every invoice — Due dates and terms set the expectation — and speed up payment.

Why Stripe alone makes getting paid harder
2.9% + $0.30 on every card payment
Stripe's fee is small on one invoice and expensive across a year of getting paid.
Card-only invoices guarantee the fee
If the invoice only offers a card link, that's what clients use — and you always pay the cut.
Setup and dashboards for a simple bill
For a lot of freelancers, Stripe is heavier than the job needs.

How to send an invoice on Stripe
Can you send an invoice through Stripe? Not from inside the app — Stripe moves the money, but it can't itemise the job, add tax, or give your client a PDF for their records. The fix takes about a minute:
- 1
Create the invoice above
Add your business name, the client, and what the job cost. The generator itemises it, totals it, and numbers it properly — free, no signup.
- 2
Download the PDF or copy the invoice link
Either works — the PDF for clients who file paperwork, the link for clients who live on their phone.
- 3
Send it through Stripe — or alongside it
Paste the link or attach the PDF in the Stripe chat, or email it. The invoice already shows your Stripe details, so the client knows exactly how to pay.
- 4
Get paid to your Stripe account
Your client pays the way they always do — and now both of you have a numbered record when tax time comes.
