Frequently Asked Questions
Yes—just like any other type of invoice (whether created from a blank invoice template or with an invoice tool like FreshBooks), this template is binding as long as you already have a business agreement in place. This is typically a contract signed by you and the client to confirm that the invoice will be binding.
Definitely—email is one of the best ways to send an invoice if you’re not using an all-in-one invoicing solution like FreshBooks. Simply fill out the free invoice template, save it as a PDF, and attach it to an email with a note to your client. This is a fast, relatively secure way to bill clients, though it can be time-consuming if you’re sending a lot of invoices.
Yes. Using the Word invoice template is the same for Canadian eCommerce as it is for any other industry. Make sure to include a breakdown of products/services rendered in the ‘description’ column and fill out the rest as normal.
If you create invoices and edit Word invoice templates by hand, you simply need to remember to change the invoice number each time (e.g., invoice #001 to invoice #002). When you use a full invoicing service like FreshBooks, a unique invoice number is automatically updated each time you bill a client.
Absolutely! The Word invoice template from FreshBooks is just as suitable for personal use as it is for Canadian professionals. Whether you want to sell a vehicle or bill for a non-professional service, this template is customizable and easily adapted to any situation.
Our free invoice template for Word is easy to customize to your needs. You can add a block of text on the bottom of the page (or the reverse side) to include your payment instructions, including the payment due date, available payment methods, and any other information you wish to include.
The FreshBooks Word free invoice template is very flexible, allowing you to update and customize virtually everything on it. Whether you need to add more columns, additional information on policy, payment due dates, payment terms, or simply make space for a company logo, the simple invoice template is very user-friendly.
Though some people still send invoices via physical mail, it’s more common for people to do it electronically—either through email or, preferably, with an integrated sending feature in your invoice software like FreshBooks. Software is the fastest, most secure way to send invoices to clients. If you decide to send it via email, though, we recommend exporting it as a .PDF to ensure no one edits it. Our invoice template for Word is printable and can be easily converted to a .PDF without changing the original formatting you’ve created.
