Invoice Templates
An invoice only has to do three things: say who is owed money, say how much, and say by when. These layouts put the total where the eye lands first and keep the line items readable, which is most of what gets an invoice paid on time.
Four line items fit comfortably; leave any of them empty and the row disappears. The totals block, the due date and the payment note are all editable, so the same design works for a one-off job or a monthly retainer.
A correct invoice and one that gets paid on time are not quite the same document - numbering, a due date rather than a payment term, and reaching the person who actually approves it are covered in how to write an invoice.

Common questions
What has to be on an invoice?
Your business name and contact details, the client's details, a unique invoice number, the issue date, a due date, a description of what you are charging for, and the total. If you are registered for sales tax, your registration number and the tax amount belong on it too.
How do I number invoices?
Sequentially, with no gaps - INV-2026-001, INV-2026-002 and so on. Gaps in a numbered sequence are the first thing an auditor asks about, and a client querying an invoice will quote the number back to you.
What payment terms should I use?
Fourteen days is standard for small work, thirty for larger clients who run monthly payment runs. Whatever you choose, put the actual due date on the invoice rather than "net 14" - a date is harder to ignore than a term.
