Questions
Do I need to give a receipt for general contractor work?
It is good practice and many customers expect one, especially for cash or check payments. Receipts also make your own bookkeeping and taxes much easier.
What is the difference between an invoice and a receipt?
An invoice asks for payment. A receipt confirms payment was received. Send the invoice first, then a receipt once the customer pays.
Can I send receipts by text or email?
Yes. Download the PDF and send it like any other file. Most customers prefer a digital copy.
Is it really free?
Yes. You can create 5 PDFs a month for free. Pro adds your logo, removes our footer and makes it unlimited.
