A partner invoice is a billing statement that summarizes what you owe a partner each month. You must settle all partner invoices in a timely manner to keep your account in good standing. impact.com generates your invoices on the 1st of each month unless you choose to configure custom payout scheduling in your template terms. For guidance on how to choose the best funding strategy for your program, see our Guide to Funding Strategies for Brands.
Note
Although invoices are generated once a month, impact.com creates multiple invoices if the transactions involved have different payment due dates. For this reason, you may see more than one invoice for a single partner in a given month.
The Partner Invoices screen offers two document types, downloadable in PDF format:
A Statement of Invoices (SOI) document summarizes all of the invoices generated for your partner. Learn more.
A Partner Invoice document contains an individual invoice for your partner. Learn more.

When checking an invoice for its due date, one of 3 options can appear in the date field:

Invoice Due Date Option | Description |
---|---|
(The actual due date) | This is the date by which the invoice must be settled if your contract terms with your partner align with your funding strategy. |
"Various" | Refer to the action details to see when you must pay your partner for driving the actions aggregated on this invoice. |
"Due upon receipt" | This means that the invoice is considered due when it is generated and first appears in your account. |
Depending on your funding strategy, you will most likely need to fund your account before an invoice is even generated, as you may only have a short time to settle your partner invoices before they become overdue. Use the Upcoming Partner Payments report to view what will likely be included in your invoices ahead of time.
