Track every invoice from sent to paid
You send an invoice, then lose track of it. Was it opened? Is the payment late by three days or three weeks? Without a system, you’re piecing the answer together from your inbox, a spreadsheet, and your bank statement — and something always slips through.
How it works
Every invoice moves through the same lifecycle, and the status updates on its own — you don’t touch a thing.

What invoice tracking gets you
All of it is included free during early access — nothing here is gated behind a paid plan.
Real-time status, no asking required
Every invoice shows its current status the moment it changes. You don’t send a “just checking in” email to find out — you open the list and it’s already there.
Delivery and view signals
See when an invoice actually reached the client’s inbox and when they opened the public link. If a payment is late and the invoice was never viewed, that’s useful to know before you assume they’re ignoring you.
Overdue invoices surface on their own
Once the due date passes with no payment recorded, an invoice flips to overdue automatically and stays visible until it’s resolved. Pair it with automatic payment reminders so a late invoice follows up without you.
Income vs. outstanding at a glance
The dashboard totals what’s been paid against what’s still owed, so you know your real cash position without adding up a spreadsheet column by column.

Why “I’ll just remember” doesn’t work
At two or three clients, keeping invoice status in your head is fine. Past that, it breaks down fast. A spreadsheet column you update by hand goes stale the day you forget to touch it. An inbox search tells you when you sent an invoice, not whether it got paid. And by the time you notice an invoice is three weeks overdue, the client has probably forgotten about it too.
SendBilling tracks the full lifecycle for you — sent, viewed, paid, overdue — the moment each one happens, on every invoice, so the answer to “who owes me money right now” is a glance instead of an afternoon of reconciling.
Invoice tracking FAQ
How does SendBilling know an invoice is paid?
You mark it paid when the money lands — a Stripe payment, a bank transfer, cash, whatever the client used. SendBilling doesn’t process payments itself, so it won’t guess for you, but marking one paid takes a click and updates every total instantly.
What exactly does “viewed” track?
It means the client opened the public invoice link — the same branded page where they can view, download, or pay. If an invoice sits on “sent” for days with no “viewed,” that’s a sign to follow up a different way.
Can I see all my overdue invoices in one place?
Yes. Overdue invoices are filterable on their own, separate from paid and outstanding totals, so you can see exactly who owes you money right now without scrolling past everything that’s already settled.
