Publisher invoice FAQ

What should a Publisher invoice include?

Your name or studio and contact, the client, a unique invoice number, the date, an itemised list of deliverables and fees, any usage or licensing terms, expenses, tax, the total due, and payment terms. Aviy generates it from a single sentence.

Should I invoice a deposit up front?

For most creative work, yes — a 30–50% deposit before you start protects your time. Invoice the deposit first, then bill the balance on delivery; Aviy tracks both against the project.

How do I bill for usage or licensing?

Add a separate line for the licence (scope, term, and territory) so it is distinct from your creative fee. That keeps the rights you are granting unambiguous on the invoice.
