Customizing invoice settings (collecting payments from Customers)

Note

This article only applies if you use our PayPal integration to collect payments from your Customers. If you have any questions on how we bill you as a OnceHub Customer, go to the Account billing article.

Payment integration allows you to automate booking-related financial processes. OnceHub automatically sends an invoice to your Customers when a payment is made or a refund is processed via OnceHub.

In the Invoice settings, you are able to:

  • Turn on automatic invoicing for payments and refunds: OnceHub allows you to automatically generate an invoice for all payments and refunds made via OnceHub and add it to default scheduling and rescheduling confirmation emails sent to the Customer.
  • Customize your invoice to fit your messaging and brand: You can easily customize the invoice template with your own text messages and company logo.
  • Customize the invoice number to work in tandem with your financial environment: You can customize the Invoice number by adding an Invoice number prefix, a Starting invoice number, and an Invoice number increment.

In this article, you will learn how to customize the Invoice settings.

Requirements

To customize the Invoice settings, you must be a OnceHub Administrator.
