Questions

How do I invoice a deposit or a progress payment?

Send an estimate first. When the client accepts, invoice the deposit, then invoice each stage; record what’s been paid so the last invoice shows only the balance.

Is this contractor invoice template free?

Yes. Download the PDF example for free. The Wow Invoice app is free to download too, and makes the same kind of invoice on your phone.

Can my clients pay the invoice by card?

Yes. Wow Invoice takes card payments through Stripe, so your client can pay by credit card, Apple Pay or Google Pay straight from the invoice link.

Can I send an estimate first?

Yes. Send an estimate, and turn it into an invoice with one tap when the client says yes.
