With DepositFix to send invoices, you also gain the ability to:
A complete invoice includes specific fields to ensure clarity, professionalism, and compliance with standard business practices. Here's a breakdown of the most important components:
Your invoice should clearly be labeled as “Invoice.” This helps your client identify it immediately and avoids confusion with estimates, receipts, or purchase orders.
If your business has a logo, include it in the invoice header. DepositFix allows you to upload a logo and select your brand color for a customized and professional look. If you don’t have a logo, that’s fine too—your business details will still be clearly presented.
Include your official business name, email address, phone number, and physical or mailing address. This helps legitimize your invoice and ensures your client knows who the invoice is from.
Clearly write your client’s name, company (if applicable), email, and address. This identifies the recipient and avoids payment confusion.
Every invoice should have a unique ID or invoice number for reference. DepositFix allows you to enter your own custom numbering format or auto-generate unique invoice numbers.
Add the invoice date (when you issue the invoice) and the due date (when payment is expected). This helps both you and your client keep track of timelines and avoid missed payments.
Break down each product or service provided into its own line item. Include:
Add any sales tax, VAT, discounts, or additional fees. DepositFix lets you calculate totals automatically so you don’t need to do the math manually.
The system totals everything for you, clearly displaying the final amount your client owes at the bottom of the invoice.
State your payment methods (bank transfer, PayPal, card, etc.), terms (Net 7, Net 30), and any penalties for late payments. Clear instructions reduce payment delays and help you get paid faster.
