The problem it solves

Every time an order comes in you have to manually pull the details together and put a proper invoice in front of the customer. That extra step eats into your day and any delay or mistake can make your business look disorganized.

Who it fits

Small e-commerce stores selling on Shopify who currently invoice customers by hand.

How it works

  1. A new order comes in on Shopify
  2. Customer, product, and price details are pulled automatically
  3. A PDF invoice is generated from a template
  4. The invoice is emailed to the customer
  5. A copy of the invoice is archived to storage

We can build this. But should you?
