Who can use this feature?

  • Administrators and instructors + back office
  • Premium BASIC / Add-On «Efficient member management»

SportsNow automatically creates and sends an invoice for each pass sold. Each invoice has a unique invoice number. This serves as the payment purpose for payment by invoice/bank transfer or for the studio to allocate incoming payments. All invoices from studios located in Switzerland automatically contain the Swiss QR code (QR invoice).


Good to know

  • You can open the invoice for a pass directly in the customer details. Click on the invoice number of the pass. To see the invoice number, click on the «+» sign in the pass.
  • On the invoice, the print date of the invoice and the URL will appear in the header and footer. If you want these areas not to appear on the invoice, you can remove them directly in the options of the print window (by default by hiding the header and footer).
  • For further functions regarding invoices and finances, we recommend the integration with bexio: Integration with bexio
  • Invoices that are synchronized with bexio are marked green in the «Invoice status» column. Clicking on it takes you directly to the bexio invoice.
