Recurring invoices

Automate invoices for retainers and subscriptions, with optional automatic card charges.

Set up a recurring invoice once and Orbinly creates and sends each one on schedule. Find them under Invoices → Recurring.

  1. 1

    Choose New Recurring Invoice

    Add a description, the client, and optionally a project.

  2. 2

    Add line items and a currency

    Same as a normal invoice.

  3. 3

    Set the schedule

    Choose a frequency: weekly, every 2 weeks, monthly, quarterly or annually. Set the first invoice date, an optional end date, and due days after generation.

  4. 4

    Choose how it's paid

    Optionally auto-charge the client's saved card. This needs your Stripe account connected and a card saved by the client.

Running and managing them

  • Invoices are generated once a day, so a recurring invoice dated today is created in that day's run.
  • Each generated invoice behaves like any other: it's emailed, tracked, reminded and marked paid.
  • Pause a schedule to stop generating without losing it, resume it later, or delete it. Invoices already created are kept.
  • The list shows each schedule's frequency, next invoice date and auto-charge setting.
Auto-charge is greyed out for clients who haven't saved a card yet. Ask them to add one in their portal's Settings.
