So, this sends an invoice after your customers paid? Isn't it normal that you send an invoice which the customer then pays?

  Yeah, to me that rather sounds like a receipt not an invoice.

    Where I live (the Netherlands), a receipt is usually just a small slip of paper you receive in a supermarket of gas station (as a private person). An invoice is usually only send to businesses and are more comprehensive than receipts. A lot of e-merchants I order at (even professionally) require immediate payment during checkout, and send the invoice only after the order is shipped. Back on topic: I rather like these "simple" solutions, but the pricing seems to high for my taste, if you think of it: they are just generating and mailing PDF's. Also, invoices usually have requirements that are different per country, so I doubt their solution is universal enough.

      Thanks for the comment! Yes, pricing might seem a little bit high, but the service also includes expenses tracking, estimates, multi-users access, invoice customization... Invoices are equal in all the EU countries: number, date, customer data, vendor data, items, VAT... And Quaderno supports multi-currencies, multi-languages, and multi-taxes :)

  In most European countries, Canada, Australia... customers always need an invoice to properly include the expense and the taxes in their accounting books.

    But this is called 'receipt' :)

    A Stripe receipt doesn't include customer data, taxes, discounts, Tax ID, etc.

    Typically called a "tax receipt" - i.e. a receipt that breaks down the tax component and includes the seller's business number and trading name. Receipts from larger companies are often tax receipts; it's typically smaller businesses that you may need to specifically request from (usually from those with simple registers). Tax invoices are still invoices: issued before payment.

  In the US, I often times see invoice/receipt used interchangeably.

  Spain requires invoices after paying, for tax purposes, and they are slightly different than a receipt if you want to claim money back for them when doing your taxes.
