Get Wise Account

Step 1: Add Professional Header & Contact Information

Position your official business logo at the top left or top right of the document. Clearly label the document with the word INVOICE in bold capital letters so accounts payable departments instantly identify the file type.

Your Business Information

Legal Company Name, Business Address, Contact Phone Number, Email, and Tax ID (GSTIN/EIN/VAT).

Client's Billing Information

Client Organization Name, Accounts Payable Email, Billing Address, and Client Tax Registration Number.

Step 2: Assign Unique Tracking Metadata & Invoice Numbers

Sequential numbering prevents duplicate billings and allows auditing. Assign an invoice date and a clear payment due date (e.g., Net 30 days).

Step 3: Itemize Services, Quantities & Applicable Taxes

Provide detailed descriptions for each line item (e.g. "Web Application Development - 40 hours @ $75/hr"). Automatically calculate subtotals, itemized discounts, and state/federal tax rates.
