Billing & Invoices
View and manage your billing history, payment methods, and download invoices.
Invoices
Go to Settings → Billing → Invoices:
- Monthly invoices — one per billing cycle
- Download as PDF — for your records or accountant
- Email copy — automatically sent to your billing email
- Search — find invoices by date or amount
Each invoice shows:
- Subscription charges (plan fee)
- Prorations (upgrades/downgrades)
- Add-ons (extra users, integrations)
- Taxes (sales tax per your state)
- Total amount due
- Payment status (paid, pending, overdue)
Payment History
View past payments:
- Date paid — when payment processed
- Amount — what was charged
- Method — credit card ending in (last 4 digits)
- Status — successful, failed, pending
Payment Methods
Manage your cards in Settings → Billing → Payment Methods:
- Add a card — Visa, Mastercard, American Express
- Set as default — primary card for auto-renewal
- Remove — delete a card you no longer use
We use Stripe to process payments. Card data is encrypted and we never see your full card number.
Failed Payments
If a charge fails:
- We retry automatically (day 3, day 5)
- If all retries fail, your account goes into past due status
- You receive an email: "Payment failed, update your card"
- Until payment is received, you can't post new loads
- Once updated and charged successfully, access is restored immediately
To update a payment method:
- Go to Settings → Billing → Payment Methods
- Click Add New Card and fill in details
- Set as default
- Old card is charged and succeeded (or fails and retries)
Billing Email
Your billing email is where invoices are sent. To change it:
- Go to Settings → Account → Billing Email
- Enter new email
- Click Update
We'll send the next invoice to the new address.
Tax
Sales tax is calculated and added based on:
- Your location (billing address)
- State and local tax rates
For example, California adds 7.25% sales tax. Utah adds 4.55%.
Tax is shown separately on your invoice. If you're tax-exempt (nonprofit, gov't), contact matt@freightconnect.ai with documentation.
Refunds & Credits
Refund policy: Monthly subscriptions are non-refundable, but you can cancel anytime.
Service credits: If we experience an extended outage, we issue a credit toward next month.
Promotional credits: If you have a promo code, enter it in Settings → Billing → Promo Code to apply the discount.
Accounting Integration
Export billing data to your accounting system:
- Go to Settings → Billing → Accounting Export
- Select month or date range
- Download CSV (can be imported to QuickBooks, Xero, Wave)
The CSV includes:
- Invoice date
- Amount (broken down by line item)
- Payment date
- Payment method
EU/UK VAT
If your business is in the EU or UK, VAT may apply:
- If you're VAT-registered, enter your VAT ID in Settings → Billing → Tax ID
- If not VAT-registered, 21-27% VAT is added
We handle VAT remittance to your tax authority.
1099 & Tax Reporting
At year-end, if you paid vendors $600+, we provide:
- 1099 summary — total paid to vendors (for your accountant)
- Payment record — dates, amounts, vendor names
Download from Settings → Billing → Tax Documents.
Troubleshooting
Invoice not received: Check spam folder or update your billing email in settings.
Charge appeared with wrong amount: Check for prorations (upgrade/downgrade) or add-ons. Review the invoice details.
Payment stuck as "pending": Usually resolves within 24 hours. If not, contact matt@freightconnect.ai.
Need an older invoice: Go to invoices and scroll down. Invoices are retained for 7 years.
