Getting Started with Envoice
This guide walks you through creating your Envoice account and sending your first invoice from start to finish. Most people complete this in under ten minutes.
Step 1 — Create Your Account
Go to app.envoice.ae and sign up with your email address. You'll receive a verification email — click the link to confirm your account.
If you sign up with Google or LinkedIn, email verification is handled automatically.
Step 2 — Set Up Your Profile
After signing in, open Settings → Business Profile and fill in:
- Business name — appears on every invoice you send
- TRN (Tax Registration Number) — if you're VAT-registered in the UAE; leave blank if not
- Address — your registered business address
- Default currency — AED is pre-selected; change if you invoice in other currencies
- Default VAT rate — set to 5% if VAT-registered, or 0% / Exempt if not
These settings are applied automatically to every new invoice you create, saving you time on each one.
Step 3 — Create Your First Invoice
From the dashboard, click New Invoice. Envoice will:
- Pre-fill your business details from your profile
- Assign the next sequential invoice number automatically
- Set today's date and a 30-day payment due date by default
Add your client by typing their name — if it's a returning client, Envoice autocompletes from your client list. For a new client, enter their name, email, and address (and TRN if they're VAT-registered).
Then add your line items. Each line has a description, quantity, unit price, and VAT treatment. Totals and the VAT breakdown are calculated automatically.
Hit Preview to see exactly what your client will receive before sending.
Step 4 — Send to Your Client
Click Send Invoice. Envoice will:
- Deliver a professionally formatted PDF to your client's email address
- Include a secure payment link (if you've connected a payment method)
- Log the send timestamp so you have a delivery record
You can also download the PDF and send it yourself if you prefer.
Setting up reminders: In the invoice detail view, you can schedule automatic payment reminders at 7, 3, and 1 day before the due date — and a follow-up after it passes.
Step 5 — Track Invoice Status
Back on the dashboard, your invoice shows one of these statuses:
- Sent — delivered to your client's inbox
- Viewed — your client opened the email or PDF
- Paid — payment confirmed (manual mark or automatic via payment integration)
- Overdue — past due date without payment
You can filter by status, search by client name, and export your invoice history to CSV at any time.
Your first invoice is free. When you're ready to continue invoicing, choose a plan that works for you — AED 39/month or AED 359/year with all features included.
