INVOICE GENERATOR

To pay your supplier invoices from within the app, tap: 'Admin' tab > ‘Invoices & Bills’ >  ‘Bills’. 

Here you can add your supplier invoice, save it as outstanding, or make a payment. 

To ensure you don't make the same payment twice, enter the unique reference number of the supplier invoice in the ‘Invoice number’ field, while creating a Bill.

You’ll see the same number in your Bills list, which you can use to track the status of your invoices.

Tide Payment Links is a secure and convenient payment method that eliminates the need for cash by collecting payments remotely by card and removes the need for a point of sale terminal.

Payment Links can be added to any invoice of your choosing, enabling customers to make prompt payments to help you get paid on time. If you have a mobile device, then you’ll receive a notification each time a payment is made.  You are only charged when a customer uses a link to make a payment.

Yes. Not only does Payment Links remove the need to physically handle cash, but it also provides a secure and prompt means of payment. Each link is secure and authentication is completed for every customer to reduce the risk of fraud. The payer’s details are securely stored and will only be visible to our payment processing partner, Adyen.

It depends on the payment method used for the invoice Payment Link:

• By card – any fees are automatically deducted from the total amount, and you’ll receive the remainder in your account in up to 3 business days.

• By bank transfer with our Pay by Bank option – you’ll normally receive the payment in a few minutes, and will see the deducted fee in the settlement’s details.
