Invoice-Me links
Ask a supplier for an invoice with one link. They fill it in with no account, and you pay it from Zold.
An Invoice-Me link turns "please send me an invoice" into one step. You generate a link, send it to a supplier, and they fill in their invoice through it — no Zold account, no wallet, nothing to install. When they submit, the invoice appears in your organisation ready to pay.
Available on Premium and Business plans.
Create a link
Invoices → Request an invoice.
- Optionally name the supplier and add a note (the project, the purchase order, what you are expecting).
- Optionally set a password. The link is sent over email, so a password is a second factor if that email could be read by someone else.
- Press Create link. Copy the link and send it to the supplier yourself.
Zold does not email the link for you. It shows you the link and you send it by whatever channel you already use with the supplier.
What the supplier does
They open the link and see a form: their details, the invoice number and dates, the lines (description, quantity, unit price — up to 200 lines), and where they want to be paid: an IBAN, or a wallet address. They submit.
Once submitted, the invoice is timestamped and locked. Neither side can edit it. If something is wrong, ask for a new one through a new link.
Pay it
The submitted invoice appears under Invoices with its state. Press Pay. The supplier's bank details come from the invoice, so nothing is retyped; the supplier lands in your address book, and their invoice number becomes the payment reference so their bookkeeping matches it without asking. Paying an invoice creates a draft like any other payment: on a Business plan with approvals switched on it goes through review, and the account holder signs it to send.
Pay needs an IBAN. An invoice where the supplier gave only a wallet address is kept on record, and you can mark it as paid elsewhere once you have settled it another way.
States
| State | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Link created | Waiting for the supplier |
| Submitted | Invoice received, ready to pay |
| Paying | A payment is in progress |
| Paid | Paid from Zold — set when the payment has settled |
| Reconciled | Matched to a transaction in your books |
| Deleted | Removed before anyone was paid |
An invoice can be deleted only while nobody has been paid against it.
Security of the link
The link is the credential. Zold stores only a hash of it, so a copy of Zold's database does not expose open invoice links. Treat the link as you would treat the invoice: send it to the supplier and no one else.
