A VFX invoice covers the work being billed as line items, totals due, and the payment terms the client is agreeing to.

Shots get turned over, finals need to drop straight into the timeline, and nobody wants to find out on delivery that a comp breaks on motion or the grain doesn’t match. A VFX invoice keeps the money side clear while the work stays focused on shots landing first time, with line items for the work and a totals block that shows what’s due and when.
The invoice leads with Line items, so the client sees what’s being billed before they see the total, and the page uses boxwood amber and violet accents under Syne headings so the key numbers and notes don’t get lost in the scroll. The payment section spells out when payment is due, the 30% booking fee and 70% on handover split, and what happens if payment slips: further files and work pause until the account is brought up to date.
Once the invoice is in your workspace, you replace the placeholder line and price with your own, then send it so the client can pay online through invoices, payments and receipts if you’ve connected a payment method.

A VFX invoice usually lists the billable work as line items, shows totals due, and states the payment terms. This template includes line items, a totals block, and written terms covering due date and what happens if payment is late.
Studios bill in a few ways, but the invoice still needs clear line items that match the quote you agreed on. The line items section gives you a place to write the billing unit you’re using and price it accordingly.
A common structure is a booking fee up front with the balance due on delivery or handover. The payment section in this invoice states 30% when the proposal is signed and 70% due on handover, plus a pause on further files and work if payment isn’t received by the due date.
Online payment depends on whether a payment method is connected to the invoice. The template supports online payment through the invoicing tool when you’ve connected a method.
Late payment terms should say what changes once the due date passes. The written payment section in this invoice says further files and work will pause if payment isn’t received by the due date shown above.
Some teams invoice only after the scope and price are agreed, especially when the work can change with editorial. The payment terms in this invoice reference the proposal being signed, so the paperwork lines up if you also use [sending a proposal a client accepts online](/product/proposals).
