Invoices & payments

The invoice is the unifying record of a sale. Every order produces a two-party-visible, tax-complete invoice — you see the ones where your org is the seller or the buyer.

How invoices are created

When a wholesale order is placed (or received from a purchase order), DISTRYB mints an invoice with the line items, totals, taxes, and any broker commission withheld. The invoice is the system of record for that transaction.

Payments

  • DTC (Bottl.Service): card payments are processed through Stripe; sellers connect their own Stripe account to receive funds.
  • Wholesale (B2B): invoices track payment status so both sides know what's open, paid, or past due.

Paying a wholesale invoice

If you're the buyer, open the invoice and use Pay invoice, or pay it from the row on your Invoices page — same payment either way. You'll see the exact total before you connect a bank: the seller receives the invoice in full, and the processing fee is shown on top of it. ACH clears in 1–4 business days.

The button appears once the seller has connected a payout account. Paid another way — cheque, wire, card over the phone? Use I paid off-platform so the seller knows to confirm it.

If you're the seller, the same invoice offers you Record payment when money arrives outside DISTRYB, Send to email it (or Remind once it's past due), and Void while nothing has been paid against it. If a payment you recorded bounces, Reverse payment reopens the invoice — it does not write off the debt.

Can't connect a bank? Sellers connect theirs under Connectors; until then buyers can't settle online.

Reading invoices over the API

Developers can pull invoices programmatically — see API: Invoices.
