How do I create and send an invoice to a buyer?

Updated September 5, 2026

Flippd can generate a branded PDF invoice for any item you've sold. Turn on the Invoices feature, mark an item as Sold, then choose Invoice Buyer from the item's more-options menu to fill in the buyer's details and share the invoice.

Turn On the Invoices Feature

The Invoice Buyer action is off by default. To enable it:

1. Go to Settings > Feature Visibility
2. Turn on Invoices
3. A one-time intro explains how it works

Step-by-Step

1. Mark the item as Sold
2. Open the item, tap the ... (more options) menu in the bottom action bar
3. Tap Invoice Buyer -- the Send Invoice screen opens
4. Fill in the details:
   • Buyer name, email, and phone
   • Total Due (pre-filled with the item's sale price)
   • Notes (optional)
5. Tap Preview Invoice to check the PDF
6. Tap Generate & Share Invoice to send it through your phone's share sheet (email, text, AirDrop, etc.)

What's on the Invoice

The generated PDF includes:

• Your business logo, name, and address (from your Business Profile)
• An invoice number (the item's stock number) and the current date
• A Bill To section with the buyer's contact details
• The item -- description, thumbnail, quantity, unit price, and line total
• Your payment methods (Zelle, Venmo, PayPal, Cash App, wire, or custom) from your Business Profile, printed under a How to Pay heading
• The total due, plus any notes you added
• A footer -- set your own in Business Profile > Invoice footer (optional), or leave it blank to use the default "Invoice your clients with Flippd - getflippd.com"

Good to Know

• Invoicing is free and has no limits on how many you create
• Set up your Business Profile first (logo, address, payment methods) so invoices look professional -- otherwise the PDF uses defaults
• Buyer details and notes are saved back to the item, so if you invoice the same buyer again the fields are pre-filled
• The Total Due defaults to the item's sale price but you can change it before sharing -- useful for adding shipping or combining a discount
• Flippd doesn't track invoice statuses (sent/paid) -- each invoice is a one-off PDF you share directly with the buyer
• The Invoice Buyer action only appears on items marked Sold
