Company information
The facts on file
- Description
- PayPal Invoicing is a no-subscription billing tool included with a PayPal Business account, letting merchants create, send and track branded invoices that customers can pay without a PayPal account. It is aimed at freelancers, contractors and micro-businesses that already accept PayPal and want billing without a second SaaS bill. Revenue for PayPal comes entirely from per-transaction payment fees rather than software fees.
