### "Happy Invoicer"

March 16, 2026

5.0

PayPal has allowed me to invoice without any worries that I may be scammed or that my money wasn't going where it needed to or feeling confused with the process.

Pros

I really like that PayPal on voicing allows me to effectively send money to family and friends, to pay my bills and to be able to ensure that my money is safe and secure.

Cons

There aren't many things that I dislike about PayPal but like any other application there can always be slow sides or moments I have to reload page.

### "PayPal Invoicing is where IT’S AT!!!!!"

April 14, 2026

5.0

I’m older and it usually takes a minute for me to figure out new software but this was cake for me.. so easy to make the accounts, send the invoices and receive what is owed to you with no hassles! PayPal Invoicing will NOT leave you hanging with any questions either if you were to get lost on the browser.

Pros

PayPal Invoicing is hands down the absolute best! A learning curve on there is NON existent and if there is, customer support is literally right at your becking call anytime of day! The team collaboration at my place of employment has never been better with absolutely NO bugs and issues. The expense management is at the top for me, couldn’t ask for better and with how smoothly the payroll operates.. you get triple the value for money!

Cons

ZERO CONS. It’s the easiest software to send an invoice on that you’ll ever use as long as you have the correct name of who you are sending your Invoice to.

### "The almost perfect online Invoicing and Payments"

November 12, 2025

3.0

I've used it for many years and have also compared it to other payment processors. PayPal is widely known, but I think it should simplify its payment process.

Pros

What I like most about Paypal Invoicing is that it's a recognized brand; you can save customer information, just by searching for them with an email address; I can keep track of sent invoices and their status, whether they have been paid or not.

Cons

Lately, what I don't like about PayPal invoices and PayPal in general is the high card rejection rate. Compared to Stripe, the payment process is faster, costumers don't have to create accounts , and the card rejection rate is lower than PayPal.

### "Great Online Invoicing Program & App"

April 15, 2025

5.0

I use PayPal invoicing regularly to charge my clients. It's great because it allows them to pay by any major credit card/debit card. It also now has "buy now pay later" and "pay installments" options, which is great for my clients.

Pros

Easy to use. Keeps invoices organized. Allows clients to pay by credit card, or to pay in installments. No charge for the system, it just deducts a fee from every credit card transaction. Great mobile app!

Cons

Every time I login, it asks if I want information on a PayPal Business Loan. And almost everyday, I get an email from them also encouraging me to apply for a loan. I get that they need to make money, but this is very annoying. I wish I could turn this off somehow.

Alternatives considered

[Square Payments](https://www.capterra.com/p/170278/Square-Payments-Processing/)

Reason for choosing PayPal Invoicing

PayPal seemed more user-friendly with a comparable fee. I also already had a personal PayPal account & was familiar with using their system.

### "Safe and useful"

October 27, 2025

5.0

Having all the payments in the same place seems great to me because the client, who doesn't have a PayPal account, can make the payment with any payment method, and my funds all remain in PayPal. It's a useful tool that I use daily to create quick and very secure invoicing because there's no insecurity when sending the link that's only for making the payment.

Pros

This tool, integrated into the PayPal application, makes it even more useful because without any accounting knowledge, I've managed to create professional-quality invoices to send to clients via email so they can make their online payments using the most convenient payment method. I like it because it's easy to learn, and when I have any questions, the support service is very quick to answer help tickets. It's also helped me ensure clients make payments securely with the link I share. It's an easy and secure process for them. For me, it helps me keep all my funds in my PayPal account. It's very secure and provides an excellent, fast payment method for each client. Also, to have a follow-up, from knowing if the client has already opened the invoice and if they made the payment.

Cons

In terms of function and quality, it's fine, but when there are too many payments, the commission can get a bit expensive, which has sometimes become uncomfortable. The amount discounted in commissions is so high. That's the only thing I don't like because everything else is done very well. I would like them to adjust the commission percentage.

### "Good but needs to be more practical and agile to save time"

September 11, 2024

3.0

I have used it for many years but I think it needs improvements based on my experience since the new update of its dashboard doesn't have the functions of the old one and this requires more time to send invoices. If I could make a comparison, Stripe is more practical and agile in this matter.

Pros

What I like most about Paypal invoicing is that I can send invoices to my clients with just one email and customize the logo and product type.

Cons

What I don't like is that there are many restrictions regarding the cards that can be used to pay. I have had multiple problems and complaints from my client that their card is not accepted by PayPal or perhaps they entered a number incorrectly and PayPal blocks the payment with their cards. This is very cumbersome since it is a waste of time and it is even a waste of money since users get frustrated and may not make the payment.

### "What’s PayPal Invoicing"

October 22, 2025

5.0

It has been seamless to generate, customize and send invoices with PayPal without involving manual processes.

Pros

PayPal Invoicing allows me to automatically track expenses to ensure that we account for every penny to discourage fraud.

Cons

Thanks to the PP customer support for helping me reinstate my account which was limited for over 15 days - there is no issue that I am facing at the moment.

### "Easy and quick invoicing on the go"

October 18, 2025

5.0

Paypal is widely recognised and my first time clients feel comfortable parting with their cash as most of them also use paypal.

Pros

Easy to set up and use, a great way to receive money for services when onsite and need to settle a bill immediately. Its easy to track payments and any income is automatically reported into my accounting software .

Cons

Originally Id sometimes forget to include these invoices in my usual acount reporting software but it all intergrates now so problem solved

### "Great tool to manage all your invoices"

February 13, 2026

5.0

I am very satisfied with paypal invocing tool, especiall the "set it and forget it" nature of the automated reminders is a lifesaver, as it handles the awkward task of chasing down payments so I don't have to.

Pros

Paypal invocing is very easy to use, it provides out of box invoice template you don't need any design skills, and comparably cheap with other product, any time I have issues, I can contact customer support easily.

Cons

One downside is that the transaction fees can be a bit higher than other platforms, which starts to add up if you’re processing a lot of orders. I’ve also found that the customization options for the invoice design are somewhat basic, so it’s hard to make them perfectly match a specific brand aesthetic.

Pros

How easy it was to create and send professional invoices while allowing clients to pay online with just a few clicks. The integration with PayPal also helped speed up payments and simplified tracking.

Cons

The biggest drawback was the transaction fees, which can add up over time, especially for businesses that process a high volume of invoices.

### "It's probably not the best, but we're married at this point."

February 17, 2019

5.0

Overall, I can't give up PayPal because it is so integrated with everything else I do and have - shipping, balance, PayPal Credit, etc... But there are definitely some things that are lacking, especially if my business were bigger. I definitely recommend you consider options before going to PayPal and building a life with them, so to speak, but it is possible that for you, like me, they are the best - however flawed - option that exists.

Pros

I use PayPal invoicing as a freelancer and mostly for one-off or two-part invoices. So, I can't speak to PayPal's recurring invoice feature. Here's what I like: Most importantly, the integration. PayPal feels like a bank, and to be able to make invoices and shipping labels from your "bank" is the most helpful thing. I don't have to transfer funds, I don't have to wait for them to deposit to my bank, it's all there and immediately usable. Also, the invoices are simple and straightforward, clients can pay by any means one would online, and there's a place for terms-conditions etc...I also like that I'm able to share a link or a PDF of the invoice with clients who just want an invoice for their records to then pay me through other means like cash/check/direct deposit.

Cons

First off, PayPal has awful customer service. If I had a higher volume of clients and therefore of issues, I feel like I'd use a different service. I had a client pay once and the money was taken from her bank, but it never got to me. We both tried contacting PayPal and got no response at all. It was even more insulting on my end given that I use PayPal as a business. Second - PayPal's fees when you invoice through them are a bit of a hassle and I know there's invoicing software out there that don't incur charges. This just means I have to take those fees into consideration when quoting clients, which make my prices seem a few dollars steeper than they are. Third gripe: I've been trying to edit a part of my business info on the invoice header for ages and it won't allow me. It asks for me to upload my ID to verify, but then it won't process my ID. And of course, customer service is unresponsive. It's not the end of the world because I just hide that info from the header, but it is a minor frustration and inconvenience.

### "International Payments with PayPal"

January 18, 2022

5.0

Paypal is a great platform to use for business transactions and i intend to continue using it

Pros

PayPal is the safest international way of sending and receiving money, I highly recommend it to anyone especially businesses. I love that you can transfer funds directly from your linked account to your recipients and the charges are not too steep when sending, receiving or withdrawing

Cons

Some features are still limited to other parts of the world, I am unable to pull funds from my bank account to my Paypal wallet which makes life difficult at times as I would have to get someone to send me funds so I can transact. They also dont have visa cards available for other parts of the world which has been the case for years and I have been hoping to see this change

### "Great Invoicing system with payment gateway"

November 10, 2022

5.0

My overall experience with Paypal invoicing has been really impressive. I have been using the invoicing system for over 3 years now and sending invoicing to my clients and have not faced any issues so far. All my clients have made payments hassle free.

Pros

The best part about paypal is the payment gateway. I have never faced issue with its gateway. No client has ever complaint about facing issue with making the payment. The invoice has the payment gateway and my clients does not have to go to any other screen to make the payment.

Cons

The only thing I do not like about this is the Invoicing format. It has a basic format which I do not like and I do not have the option to upload my own format which looks more professional.

### "Agrxis Review on PayPal Invoicing"

May 13, 2023

5.0

Overall, my experience with PayPal Invoicing has been excellent. The user interface of the app is easy to use, and it has made it tremendously convenient for me to submit invoices to my clients. I value the app's versatility and customization possibilities, which let me modify each invoice to suit my unique requirements and brand. Real-time tracking of payments and unpaid balances has also been a tremendous assistance to me in managing my finances. Additionally, anytime I've had queries or problems with the software, I've discovered the customer service to be helpful and responsive. While there have occasionally been issues with processing payments or syncing with my bank account, they have often been minor and have been swiftly fixed. Overall, if you're searching for a dependable and effective invoicing and payment processing solution, I'd strongly recommend PayPal Invoicing.

Pros

I truly value PayPal Invoicing's convenience and adaptability. I love that I can personalize each invoice with my own branding and content, and it's so simple to design and send my clients bills that appear professional. I can simply keep track of payments and unpaid balances with the help of the app, and I get notifications when customers examine and pay their bills. Another significant benefit is the capability of accepting payments from various sources, such as PayPal balances and credit cards. Additionally, the costs associated with processing payments are fair and clear, and I value the security that PayPal's seller protection program offers. Overall, PayPal Invoicing has been a useful tool for my company, and I heartily endorse it to any small business owners or independent contractors looking for a quick and dependable solution to handle their invoices and payments.

Cons

No complain so far about PayPal Invoicing

### "Paypal for your businesses"

October 4, 2022

5.0

I have used Paypal to receive international transactions, business payments through invoices. It's safe and reliable, very fast and easy to use. Once you update your account to business and complete all the verifications, it's a good payment method.

Pros

Invoices are a genius feature to incllude in your business. People can send you money from almost any country and receive it instantly.

Cons

Paypal in general is the best choice for those who don't have another choice. In the future, online payments will be done cheaply and less centralized. Paypal really cut a lot of your money when you transact, and also conversions to your country don't use standar tariffs. Also the retentions, those are really bad when you need your money immediately and your account isn't active or there's something suspicious about the money.

### "A Great and Excellent Solution for Invoicing and Getting Paid Fast"

July 25, 2022

5.0

PayPal Invoicing is the best software and payment service recommended for those who want to get paid through Debit or Credit Card.

Pros

\- Managing your invoice payments in one place in minutes is easy and fast. - It reduces costs postage fees, postal envelopes, paper, and staff wages for invoice handling. - It guarantees better accuracy and speed. I uses PayPal Invoicing to send out invoices instantly. This software leaves no room for human mistakes and error unlike the physical invoices. - It improves and increases the overall efficiency and productivity of my business. - The reporting and tracking features of the software give me a clearer view of my cash flow and smoothen the general operations. - The software offered me excellent user experience, making it the best invoicing tool I have ever used. - It speeds up invoicing process, thanks to its ability to save a template for future use. - Our customers like making payment with ease and we have not had any problem with PayPal in the past. In addition, the customer support has been great in responding to all our questions. - In general, I would suggest this product to anyone. PayPal invoicing is perfect for amateurs and simple to sort out.

Cons

\- At some point PayPal holds your installment for over 7 days which I believe is something terrible about PayPal invoicing. - Your invoice could be cancelled by PayPal for no reason whatsoever. - If your account is suspected for any fraudulent activity by PayPal, your payment would be frozen. This can be annoying as it is normally a little thing that I made mistake about or failed to fill out. - High costs of transaction. Currency withdrawal and conversion charges are from 5 percent to 7 percent per transaction. This is on the higher side, compared with other available alternatives.

Non customer need to fill several boxes with details at checkout which is time consuming. PayPal might not be appropriate for selling high risk business and digital goods where chargeback rate is high cause PayPal prefers to decide disputes in favor of buyer

### "Creating and managing bills is more controllable and easier"

February 15, 2022

5.0

It's very convenient to use Paypal Invoicing, my invoice payment schedule is more organized and controlled. And another advantage is that Paypal often gives me a reward claim of $ 5 for free.

Pros

I've had a PayPal account for a long time and have used the Paypal Invoicing facility since 2009, long story short, I accidentally got a job contract with a modeling agency from Australia. I can still work from home and suggested to them to allow me to use the Paypal Invoicing facility as a term payment method. And it got a positive reception from their side. Our contract runs for approximately one year and thanks to Paypal Invoicing, I can see the progress of my earnings every month, control new and overdue Invoices, and remind them back.

Cons

For new account registration, the verification takes quite a long time, maybe it can be said that it is reasonable because Paypal prioritizes the security and authenticity of the data for each customer. And to achieve Unlimited transactions takes quite a long time. Usually, the provisions for new accounts will definitely get a transaction limit.
