How to Mark an Invoice as Paid

If a customer pays with cash, check, or bank transfer (outside of Stripe), you need to manually mark the invoice as paid.

Steps

1. Go to Invoices
2. Click on the invoice
3. Click Mark as Paid
4. Select the payment method (Cash, Check, Bank Transfer)
5. Enter the amount paid
6. Click Confirm

Automatic vs Manual

• Stripe payments (via payment link): The invoice auto-updates to "Paid" — no action needed
• Cash, check, Zelle, Venmo: You need to mark it manually

Tip: Always record how they paid. It makes tax time much easier.
