How to make an invoice
Five minutes, and nothing to install.
- Add your details. Your business name and how to reach you at the top, and who you’re billing.
- Number it and date it. Give the invoice its own number and a due date. Use a date, such as “Mar 23”, not just “14 days”.
- List what you did. One line per job, part or hour, with a quantity and a price. The amount and the total work themselves out.
- Add tax and a note. Enter a tax rate if you charge one, and say how you’d like to be paid.
- Save the PDF and send it. Click Download PDF, choose Save as PDF, and attach it to an email or text.
Invoice questions
What should an invoice include?
Your business name and contact details, your customer’s name, a unique invoice number, the invoice date and due date, a clear description of each item or service with quantity and price, any tax, the total due, and how to pay. Add your tax or business ID if your country or state requires it.
How do I number my invoices?
Use a simple running number such as 1001, 1002, 1003, or a year prefix such as 2026-001. Pick one pattern and keep to it. Every invoice needs its own number, so you and your customer can find it later.
What payment terms should I use?
Due on receipt suits small jobs paid on the day. Net 7 or Net 14 is common for trades and repairs, and Net 30 for ongoing work for businesses. Write the due date on the invoice rather than only the term, so nobody has to count days.
Do I have to charge tax on an invoice?
It depends on where you work and what you sell. Sales tax, VAT or GST rules differ by place and by service, so check with your tax office or accountant. If tax applies, enter the rate here and it shows as its own line on the invoice.
How do I save the invoice as a PDF?
Click Download PDF. Your browser’s print window opens: choose Save as PDF as the destination and save. Only the invoice is printed, not the form around it.
Is the invoice generator really free? Do you keep my invoices?
Yes, it is free with no account. Everything you type stays in your browser. Paylark does not receive or store your invoice, so close the tab and it is gone. Download the PDF first if you want to keep it.
Can Paylark send the invoice and collect payment?
Yes. Paylark sends invoices by email or text, lets customers pay by card, Apple Pay or bank transfer, and sends polite reminders when one is late. It is opening soon, and you can join the waitlist.
Want it sent, tracked and paid by card? Paylark does that.
