Business Information

Your business information appears on all invoices and quotes, making it essential for professional-looking documents.

Business Logo: - Upload your company logo - Supports PNG, JPG, GIF, and WebP formats (maximum 5MB) - Square images work best for consistent display - The logo appears in the "Brand" block on your templates - Delete button available to remove the current logo

Business Details: - Business Name - Your company or trading name (appears on all documents) - Business Email - Contact email for customer inquiries - Phone Number - Business contact number - Tax ID - Your local tax/registration number - VAT Number - For tax compliance and B2B invoicing - PEPPOL ID - Your electronic address for e-invoicing routing — enter the participant number only (e.g. 1234567890123; the GLN scheme 0088 is applied automatically). Used when exporting UBL/CII/Peppol e-invoices — see the E-Invoicing & Compliance section for details - Tax Scheme - The tax system your business uses (e.g. VAT, GST, SST)

Address Information: - Street Address - City - State / Province - Postal Code - Country

All this information is used in: - The "From" block on invoices and quotes - Email sender information when sending documents - PDF generation for professional appearance

Note: Bank details (bank name, IBAN, SWIFT/BIC) used in the Payment Details block are set under Document Settings, not here.

Tips
  • Use a square logo for best results across all templates
  • Include your VAT number for B2B invoicing and compliance
  • Add your PEPPOL ID if you send electronic invoices to EU public bodies
  • Complete your full address for professional-looking documents
  • Keep information updated when your business moves or changes details

Document Settings

Document settings control how your invoices and quotes are numbered and what defaults are applied to new documents. Invoices and quotes are numbered independently.

Document Numbering: Build your numbering format from interchangeable parts, with a live preview of the next number: - Prefix - Letters before the number (e.g., "INV", "QT") — up to 6 characters - Year / Month - Toggle whether the year and/or month appear in the number - Short year - Use a 2-digit year (e.g., 24) instead of the full year - Separator - The character between segments (e.g., -, /, ., or none) - Digits - How many digits the sequence is padded to (e.g., 4 → 0001) - Sequence reset - The counter can reset yearly so each year starts fresh

A live preview shows exactly what the next document number will look like (e.g., INV-2026-0042).

Default Currency: Set your most commonly used currency. Invotify supports 102 currencies worldwide. The default currency is pre-selected when creating new invoices and quotes (you can still override it per customer or per document).

Payment Details: Set your bank details so they appear in the Payment Details block on documents: - Bank Name - SWIFT / BIC - IBAN

Default Payment Terms: Choose the default terms applied to new documents: Due on receipt, Net 7, Net 15, Net 30, Net 60, or Net 90 days. The due date is calculated automatically from these terms.

Late Fees: Configure automatic late fees for overdue invoices — grace period, a percentage or fixed amount, an optional maximum cap, and whether the fee recurs.

Payment Reminders: Enable automatic reminder emails sent a set number of days before and/or after the due date.

Tax Presets: Save reusable tax configurations (see the Tax Presets section below).

Signature: Set a default signatory name and title that can appear in the Signature block on documents.

Default Notes & Terms: Provide default notes and terms & conditions text that pre-fills on new invoices and quotes.

Tips
  • Enable the Year segment if you want a fresh sequence each year
  • Set your most common currency as default to save time
  • Add your IBAN and SWIFT/BIC so they show in the Payment Details block
  • Default notes & terms save you from retyping the same boilerplate on every document

Tax Presets

Tax presets let you save common tax rates once and reuse them across invoices and quotes, instead of retyping percentages every time. They're available on all plans.

What a preset stores: - Name - A label for the rate (e.g., "Standard VAT", "Reduced rate", "Zero-rated") - Rate - The tax percentage (0–100%) - Description - Optional note explaining when to use it - Default - Optionally mark one preset as the default applied to new line items

Managing presets: 1. Go to Settings → Document Settings and find the Tax Presets section 2. Click Add to create a preset, or edit/delete an existing one 3. Mark a preset as the default with the star toggle so it's pre-selected on new documents

How presets are used: When adding tax to a line item or document, you can pick a saved preset to fill the rate instantly. You can still override the rate per line item — presets are a convenience, not a lock.

Automatic country-based default: If you haven't marked any preset as the default, new line items are pre-filled with your country's standard VAT rate (taken from the company country in Settings — e.g., Latvia → 21%). Setting a default preset always overrides this, including an explicit 0% preset for businesses that don't charge VAT. For countries without a single national rate (like the United States), no rate is assumed and new items start at 0%.

Related tax features: - Dual tax per line item (all plans) — apply two independent tax rates per row - Per-customer tax setup (all plans) — store a default tax ID and rates per client - Per-product tax categories (Pro) — set primary and secondary tax defaults per product

Reusable rates

Save common tax rates once and apply them in a click.

Default preset

Mark one preset as the default applied to new documents — or let your country's standard VAT rate apply automatically.

Dual tax

Combine with two independent tax rates per line item.

All plans

Tax presets, dual tax, and per-customer tax are available on every plan.

Tips
  • Create a preset for each rate you use regularly so you never mistype a percentage
  • Mark your most-used rate as the default to speed up new documents
  • You can still override any rate per line item — presets just save typing

Security Settings

Invotify provides multiple security options to protect your account.

Password Management: Change your password from the Security tab: 1. Enter your current password 2. Enter your new password 3. Confirm the new password 4. Click "Change Password" to update

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Add an extra layer of security with email-based two-factor authentication: - When enabled, a one-time verification code is sent to your email on each login - Enter the 6-digit code to complete sign-in - Codes are time-limited for security

How to enable 2FA: 1. Go to Settings → Security 2. In the "Two-Factor Authentication" section, toggle "Email Code" on 3. 2FA is active immediately — from your next sign-in, a 6-digit code is emailed to you to complete the login

Passkeys (WebAuthn): Use modern passwordless authentication with passkeys: - Sign in using fingerprint, face recognition, or device PIN - More secure than passwords - resistant to phishing attacks - Supports hardware security keys (YubiKey, etc.) - Multiple passkeys can be registered per account

How to set up passkeys: 1. Go to Settings → Security 2. Click "Add Passkey" 3. Follow your device's prompts (fingerprint, face, or PIN) 4. The passkey is registered and can be used for future logins 5. You can register multiple passkeys for different devices

Managing passkeys: - View all registered passkeys in the Security tab - Delete passkeys you no longer use - Add new passkeys for additional devices

Active Sessions: The Security tab also lists every device currently signed in to your account. Your current device is marked "This device". You can sign out an individual session or sign out every other session at once if you suspect unauthorized access.

For full details on all authentication methods (including Google and Apple sign-in and password recovery), see the Security & Authentication section.

Password

Change your account password (minimum 8 characters) from the Security tab

Email 2FA

Receive a one-time 6-digit code via email for each password login

Passkeys

Use biometric authentication (fingerprint, face) or hardware keys

Active Sessions

Review and revoke signed-in devices from one place

Tips
  • Enable 2FA for an extra layer of security on your account
  • Register passkeys on all your devices for convenient, secure access
  • Use a strong, unique password that you don't use elsewhere
  • If you lose access to your 2FA email, contact support for account recovery
Important
  • Make sure you have access to your registered email before enabling 2FA
  • Deleting all passkeys means you'll need to use password-based login

Integrations

The Integrations tab lets you connect external services. Payment and bank-sync integrations are available on Pro and Lifetime plans.

Accept Online Payments: Connect Stripe and/or PayPal so customers can pay your invoices online. Both use a secure OAuth connection — you authorize Invotify from your existing Stripe or PayPal account; Invotify never sees your login.

Setting Up a Payment Provider: 1. Go to Settings → Integrations 2. Under "Accept online payments", click Connect next to Stripe or PayPal 3. You'll be redirected to the provider to authorize the connection 4. Complete onboarding (or sign in to your existing account) 5. Once connected, the status and account details appear in Settings

After Connecting: - Payment links can be generated for individual invoices - Payment links are included in invoice emails automatically - Customers can pay directly from the link by card or supported wallet - Payments are deposited into your connected Stripe or PayPal account - Invoice status updates automatically via webhooks when a customer pays

Bank Reconciliation: Pro/Lifetime users can also connect a bank account (via Plaid) to pull in transactions and match them against outstanding invoices. See the Bank Sync section for details.

Managing & Disconnecting: - View connection status and account details in Settings - Click Disconnect to remove an integration at any time - Disconnecting stops new payment links from working but does not affect your Stripe/PayPal account itself

Stripe

Connect Stripe via OAuth to accept card and wallet payments on invoices

PayPal

Connect PayPal via OAuth to accept PayPal payments on invoices

Bank Reconciliation

Connect a bank (Plaid) to match transactions to invoices

Auto Tracking

Payment status updates automatically via webhooks when customers pay

Important
  • Payment and bank-sync integrations require a Pro or Lifetime plan
  • You need a Stripe or PayPal account (free to create) to accept online payments

EU VAT Validation (VIES)

When adding a customer with a European VAT number, Invotify can validate it against the official EU VIES database and auto-fill the company details.

How it works: 1. You create a new customer and enter their VAT number (e.g., LV40203700105) 2. Invotify detects it’s an EU VAT number (starts with a 2-letter EU country code) 3. It sends the number to the European Commission’s VIES database for validation 4. If valid: the company name and registered address from the government database auto-fill into the customer record 5. If invalid: you see a warning before saving

Why this matters: - For B2B invoicing in Europe, you need to verify your client’s VAT number for tax compliance (reverse charge, VAT exemptions) - Auto-filling the official registered name and address prevents typos and ensures your invoices reference the legally correct entity - VIES is the authoritative source — it’s the same database tax authorities use

Supported countries: All 27 EU member states plus Northern Ireland (XI). The full list: AT, BE, BG, CY, CZ, DE, DK, EE, EL, ES, FI, FR, HR, HU, IE, IT, LT, LU, LV, MT, NL, PL, PT, RO, SE, SI, SK, XI.

Free, no API key: VIES is operated by the European Commission. It’s free, public, and requires no registration. Invotify calls it directly when you validate a VAT number.

Note: VIES is occasionally slow or unavailable when EU member state databases are undergoing maintenance. Invotify handles timeouts gracefully — you can always save the customer and validate later.

Official EU database

Validates against the same database tax authorities use.

Auto-fill

Company name and registered address populate automatically from VIES.

Tax compliance

Ensure your B2B invoices reference the correct legal entity and VAT number.

27 EU countries

All EU member states plus Northern Ireland (XI).

Tips
  • Always validate VAT numbers before sending invoices — invalid VAT can cause tax compliance issues
  • If VIES is temporarily unavailable, save the customer anyway — editing the VAT number later re-validates it automatically
  • Non-EU VAT numbers (e.g., UK, Swiss) are not covered by VIES — validate those manually
