There are two easy ways to create and send an invoice. You can create an invoice from a project or a new invoice from scratch from the invoice page.

Wethos Starter 🌱 users will only be able to create invoices within their first project, however, they will not be able to accept payments through any of the available payment methods. Only Wethos Pro and Wethos Team users can activate and use the Wethos payment methods.

Upgrading to Wethos Pro ⚡️ or Wethos Team 👑 allows you to have unlimited access to all of Wethos’ invoicing features including creating invoices from scratch and accepting payments through the available payment methods.

Secure your deposit with just a flip of a switch and automatically send an invoice to your client as soon as they sign and accept your proposal.

Learn more about how to request a deposit from your client and send an invoice for this deposit in our detailed Help Center article here.

Once you have all the information you need to send to your client, the next step is to send it out and get paid!

Before you send the invoice to your client, you can review the client experience yourself by sending a test invoice or reviewing the invoice share link. You can also see a preview of the invoice by selecting the eye icon at the top of your invoice page.

How you can preview your invoices from the invoice builder page

Send your invoice with your client by selecting “send now” and choosing from the available options on how to send your invoice. You can copy the share link and provide it to your client, or you can send it through the platform directly to your client's email address. If you need to send your invoice to multiple contacts, you can include additional email addresses in the CC section. Select “send as email” and you’re all set.

Options on how to share your invoices with your clients either by email or by providing the share link

After sending an invoice through the platform, your client will receive an email that includes your custom message, the invoice number, the due date, the amount of the invoice, and the project it's associated with. It will look similar to this:

You also have the option to copy your invoice share link and email it directly to your client instead of sending it through the Wethos platform. The choice is yours!

When your client clicks “pay invoice,” they will be brought to the client-facing view of the invoice.

At the top, they will have the ability to download or print the invoice. If you send your client the share link of your invoice, they will simply be brought to the client-facing view of the invoice (shown below).

Your client will have the option to select the payment method they wish to pay you through. These payment options can all be activated through your Wethos account settings. Learn more in our detailed Help Center article HERE.

Don’t forget, if your preferred payment method has any processing fees or you incur any additional fees for your work, you can pass these fees over to your client by including them in your invoice.
