PayPal Invoicing
PayPal Invoicing lets freelancers, service professionals, consultants, and small businesses create and send client invoices. You can customize them with a company name, brand colors, logo, taxes, discounts, shipping details, and notes, then share them by email, SMS, messaging apps, social media, or QR code. A dashboard shows when an invoice is sent, opened, and paid. Templates support recurring invoices, while automatic reminders and QuickBooks and Xero sync can reduce manual work. Customers can pay without a PayPal account, but senders need one to create and send invoices. The service is available on the web, iOS, and Android, including through the PayPal app. Creating and sending invoices has no setup or subscription fee; transaction fees apply when customers pay. Listed rates are 3.49% + $0.49 per transaction for PayPal and Venmo, and 4.99% + $0.49 per transaction for Pay Later. Fixed fees vary by currency received, and international transactions may add a percentage-based fee.
