The animation gets approved, the deadline gets close, and then the finance side still needs to stay clear when timing and revisions are the stressful part. This Animation Invoice gives the buyer one place to see what’s being charged and when payment is due, without the numbers getting rebuilt from scratch each time.

The invoice starts with Line items, then moves straight into Payment is due on the date, with headings in Raleway over a print-ink rose and glaze teal palette that keeps the important parts easy to spot. The payment text spells out the booking payment and the handover balance, and it also says what happens if the due date passes and payment still hasn’t landed.

  • Line items The line items block holds the work being billed, so you swap the placeholder entry for your own description and price.
  • Payment is due on the date The written terms confirm the due date, refer to payment details on the invoice, and describe the split between a booking payment and the handover balance.
  • Totals The totals block calculates what’s owed based on the line items, so the buyer sees the final amount in one place.

Once the invoice is in your workspace, you replace the placeholder line with your own work and pricing, then send it through invoices, payments and receipts. If you’ve connected a payment method, the same invoice can be paid online, leaving the totals and due date to stay consistent across versions.

We went from spending hours on every proposal to creating fully customized ones in under 5 minutes. That's not an exaggeration - we timed it.

Questions about this invoice template

What should an animation invoice include?

An animation invoice usually includes line items for what’s being billed, a totals section, a due date, and payment terms. This one also references a split between a booking payment and the balance due on handover.

How do I bill for animation revisions on an invoice?

Revisions normally appear as their own line items, with a description that matches what was agreed and a price for each item. The totals update based on whatever lines you add.

Should an animation invoice mention a deposit or booking payment?

An invoice can mention a deposit or booking payment when the project uses staged payments. The payment terms in this template refer to a 25% booking payment and the remaining balance due on handover.

What payment terms should go on an animation invoice?

Payment terms typically state the due date, where payment details can be found, and what happens if payment is late. The terms here say payment is due on the date shown and that next steps get agreed if payment doesn’t arrive by then.

Can I take payment online from an invoice?

Online payment depends on having a payment method connected. The template notes that you can connect a payment method if you want the invoice paid online.

How do I invoice for motion graphics work with different deliverables?

Different deliverables usually get broken into separate line items so the buyer can see what each part costs. The totals section then reflects the full amount based on those lines.
