Recurring Invoices

What are recurring invoices? (Recurring billing in South Africa)

Recurring invoices in Rebill auto-generate and email on a set schedule — weekly, monthly, or annually. Set up once and Rebill bills your clients automatically. Premium feature.

Recurring billing is the automated process of generating and sending invoices to a client on a fixed schedule — weekly, monthly, quarterly, or annually — without manual action each time. In Rebill, you set up the client, line items, and frequency once, and the system creates and emails the invoice automatically on the scheduled date.

When to use recurring invoices

Recurring invoices are perfect for repeat billing situations, such as:

  • Monthly retainer clients (e.g. bookkeepers, designers, consultants)
  • Subscription-based services
  • Regular cleaning, gardening, or maintenance services
  • Monthly rent or lease payments
  • Any client you invoice for the same amount every period

Instead of manually creating and sending the same invoice every month, you set it up once and Rebill takes care of it.

How it works

When a recurring invoice is active:

  1. On the scheduled date, Rebill automatically creates a new invoice with your specified line items
  2. The invoice is emailed to the client (and optionally sent via WhatsApp)
  3. The next invoice date is automatically calculated and shown in your recurring invoices list
  4. You can still see all generated invoices in your regular Invoices list

Premium feature

Recurring invoices are available on the Premium plan only. To upgrade, go to Settings → Subscription.
