Invoice types

The kinds of invoices you may see and what triggers each one.

Last updated May 8, 2026

Not every invoice on your account is for the same thing. Knowing which type you are looking at helps you match it back to an order, a shipment, or a recurring service.

#Sales order invoices

Most orders bill in two pieces:

  • Deposit invoice — issued near the start of an order. The deposit confirms the order and unlocks production. Specifics around how much is taken as a deposit depend on your account setup.
  • Balance invoice — issued once items are produced and ready to ship. This covers the remaining cost of the order, including any final shipping or sales tax.

A small order may bill in a single invoice rather than a deposit-plus-balance pair. Either way, you will see them tied to the order they belong to.

#Storage and fulfillment invoices

If we hold inventory for you in our warehouse network, you will see recurring invoices for storage and fulfillment. These typically include:

  • Storage fees for items sitting on your account
  • Per-shipment fulfillment fees for orders that ship out of inventory
  • Any kitting, returns, or international handling that happened during the period

These invoices have an invoice period — the date range of activity they cover.

International shipments incur a 15% international handling fee applied to the order subtotal, decoration and pick rates, packaging, and shipping. See the terms for the binding language.

#Subscription invoices

If your plan includes a recurring platform fee or another subscription service, it bills on its own cadence (usually monthly). Subscription invoices show up alongside the rest in Billing > Invoices and can be auto-paid separately from the rest.

#Where to find them

Open Billing > Invoices in the side nav. The list shows every invoice on your account. Open one to see line items, taxes, totals, and the payment record for any payments already applied.

#Questions on a charge

If a line item does not look right, open the invoice and reach out to your account team with the invoice number. We will walk through it with you.
