ReqMe streamlines invoicing so you can bill clients and receive payments without leaving the platform. This guide covers creating invoices and accepting online payments.
Creating an Invoice #
From a request with a signed contract, click Create Invoice. ReqMe pulls pricing details from the contract to pre-populate line items.
Invoice Details #
Each invoice includes:
- Invoice number – Auto-generated, sequential
- Client information – Name, email, address
- Line items – Services, quantities, rates
- Subtotal, taxes, total – Calculated automatically
- Due date – When payment is expected
- Payment instructions – How to pay
Customizing Invoices #
Edit line items, adjust quantities, or add discounts before sending. You can also:
- Add notes or special instructions
- Attach files (receipts, documentation)
- Set partial payment options for deposits
Sending Invoices #
Click Send Invoice to email the invoice to your client. They receive a link to view the invoice and make payment online if you have Stripe connected.
Online Payments with Stripe #
When Stripe is connected, clients see a Pay Now button on their invoice. They can pay by credit card, debit card, or other enabled payment methods. Funds transfer directly to your Stripe account.
See Connecting Stripe for Online Payments to set up payment processing.
Tracking Payment Status #
Monitor invoices from your dashboard:
- Draft – Not yet sent
- Sent – Awaiting payment
- Viewed – Client opened the invoice
- Paid – Payment received
- Overdue – Past due date, unpaid
ReqMe updates status automatically when payments are processed through Stripe.
