Invoices

On the Billing page, admins decide who receives invoices and what appears on them, and find issued invoices as PDF. This page explains the billing account, payment methods and the invoice list.

The Billing page

Click Billing in the sidebar. Only admins see this page. If your workspace pays for its seats, the Your plan card is at the top, followed by the seats, the billing account if you pay by invoice, and the invoices once there are any. The Your plan card shows:

  • Seats: how many seats of which plan are booked.
  • Credits per month: the credits all seats together bring each month.
  • Monthly or Yearly: the amount per month or per year, excluding VAT.
  • Next billing date: the date of the next billing.
  • Payment method: card or invoice.
  • Discount: only appears if a discount has been agreed, with an end date where applicable.

Setting up the billing account

The billing account records who receives invoices and what appears on them. To pay by invoice, Custodos needs at least an address and an e-mail address.

  1. 1

    Open the billing account

    On the Billing page, go to the Billing account section.
  2. 2

    Enter the recipient

    Enter Company and E-mail for invoices. The e-mail address is required.
  3. 3

    Enter the address

    Fill in Street and number, Additional line if needed, Postcode, City and Country. The choice covers Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Germany, Austria and other European countries.
  4. 4

    Add the tax number

    The VAT number is optional and appears on the invoices.
  5. 5

    Save

    Click Save billing details. Changes apply from the next invoice.

Payment methods

Custodos bills by card or by invoice. All prices exclude VAT. Billing is in euros; the Custodos team sets up billing in Swiss francs on request. Booking a plan yourself, by card or by invoice, is not possible at the moment: the Custodos team sets up new plans. Existing card subscriptions continue unchanged.

Payment methodHow it worksNote
CardThe amount is charged automatically. Manage payment & invoices opens the page of the payment provider Stripe, where you change the card and view invoices.The billing account then does not appear on the Billing page; you maintain the details at Stripe.
InvoicePayable within 30 days net. Every invoice is sent by e-mail to the e-mail for invoices.Payment by invoice is enabled by the Custodos team.

The invoice list

As soon as the first invoice is issued, the Invoices section appears on the Billing page. Each row shows Invoice, Period, Total, Status and Due. On the right you open the invoice at Stripe or download it as PDF.

Every PDF download is recorded in the activity log as Invoice PDF downloaded.

StatusMeaning
paidThe invoice has been settled.
openThe invoice has been issued and not yet paid.
overdueThe due date has passed.
voidThe invoice has been cancelled and does not need to be paid.

Invoices by e-mail

When an invoice is issued, Custodos sends an e-mail with the invoice number and amount to the e-mail for invoices, and with the due date if you pay by invoice. Invoices without an amount, for example in a fully discounted month, are not sent by e-mail. View invoice opens the invoice, the PDF and the payment options.

If no e-mail address is stored in the billing account, the message goes to the admin who joined the workspace first. So enter an address your accounts team reads, for example a shared mailbox.

When a payment fails

If a card payment fails, the Billing page shows the note The last payment failed. Stripe retries the payment. In addition, the e-mail for invoices receives a message with the Settle invoice button. Update the card via Manage payment & invoices or settle the invoice directly.

In the meantime, access continues and your team keeps receiving credits.
