Digital Invoices vs Paper Invoices
Digital vs paper invoices — which is better for your UK small business? We compare speed, cost and compliance.
Speed and convenience
Digital invoices arrive instantly by email. The customer can review and pay immediately. Paper invoices take days to arrive by post and can be lost or delayed.
Digital invoicing also lets you create and send invoices from anywhere — including from your phone immediately after completing a job.
Tracking and management
Digital invoicing software tracks when an invoice is viewed, when it is paid and when it is overdue. You can see the status of every invoice at a glance.
Paper invoices offer no tracking. You have no way of knowing if the customer received the invoice, opened it or is just ignoring it.
Cost and environmental impact
Digital invoices cost nothing to send — no paper, no ink, no postage. Over a year, the savings add up, especially for businesses sending many invoices.
Digital invoicing is also better for the environment. Reducing paper usage is a simple way to make your business more sustainable.
