# Stripe Invoicing pricing

Stripe Invoicing offers two pricing tiers:
* **Invoicing Starter** at 0.4% per paid invoice for businesses with simpler invoicing needs.
* **Invoicing Plus** at 0.5% per paid invoice for businesses with more advanced invoicing requirements.
These fees apply only to one-time invoices and don't include payment processing or usage of subscription invoices. Invoices generated via a subscription are part of [Stripe Billing](http://stripe.com/billing).
Post-payment invoices for one-time purchases in Checkout and Payment Links isn't an Invoicing feature. Pricing for post-payment invoices for one-time purchases in [Checkout](https://stripe.com/payments/checkout) and [Payment Links](https://stripe.com/payments/payment-links) is available [on our pricing page](https://stripe.com/pricing).
Users aren't charged for invoices that are marked as paid outside Stripe.
Detailed product and fee information is available on the [Stripe Invoicing pricing page](http://stripe.com/invoicing/pricing).
## FAQs

### Why does Stripe charge for invoicing software?
Many businesses still spend too much time on their invoicing workflows. We want to deliver a better product to help businesses save time and get paid faster and we think it’s worth paying for. For example, we introduced  features like partial payments on the hosted invoice page, payment plans, and improved auto-reconciliation for bank transfer payments.
Charging for Invoicing means we can keep investing in improvements like these. We designed our pricing model to be usage-based with no flat fees or setup costs, so that you only pay more as your business grows.
### Is an invoice the same thing as a receipt?
No. You can send an [email receipt](https://stripe.com/docs/receipts) as confirmation that a Stripe payment was successful.
Invoices provide an itemized list of goods and services rendered, which includes the cost, quantity, and taxes. You can also use them as a tool to collect payment.
