# Invoices and payments

Invoices are issued on the **1st** of each month for the previous month's usage. Credit is applied
first, then the billing owner's saved card is charged.

## Find an invoice [#find-an-invoice]

Go to **Account › Billing › Invoices**. Filter by **All**, **Due** or **Paid**. **Upcoming** shows the
current month's draft with usage so far.

## Read an invoice [#read-an-invoice]

Open an invoice to see:

* the **Invoice summary**: total, **Credits applied**, amount due and line items;
* **Bill to**: your organization's [billing details](/en/account/organization-settings#billing-details)
  as they were when the invoice was issued;
* **Line items** grouped by product: each resource with its quantity (hours, GB, emails…), unit price and
  amount;
* the tax line, if tax applies to your country, and the **Payment timeline**.

All amounts are in US dollars (USD).

## Get a copy [#get-a-copy]

* **Print or save as PDF**.
* **Download CSV** for your spreadsheet or accounting tool.
* **Email invoice**: send a copy to your accountant or finance team.

## Pay an open invoice [#pay-an-open-invoice]

An invoice that wasn't paid automatically shows **Due**. Open it and select **Pay**. Adding
[credit](/en/billing/add-credit) also pays open invoices right away.

## If a payment fails [#if-a-payment-fails]

When we can't charge the card, the invoice stays **Due** and the billing owner gets an email **Payment
needed for invoice** with the reason and a **Pay invoice** link. We retry the card automatically once a
day, up to four attempts in total. To fix it, update the card under
[Payment methods](/en/billing/payment-methods) and pay the invoice, or add credit.
