How do I invoice my Clients who don't use Liquid?

Liquid makes it easy to invoice your Clients who use Liquid as well as those who don't — and if your Client is in the US and chooses to pay your invoice via Liquid, you'll get paid in 1-5 business days.

You can create Invoices directly in Liquid or by uploading Invoices to Liquid.

Invoices must be created for Work Orders (services) or Purchase Orders (goods).
