Checkout: Request Invoice vs Batch With Future Order

Checkout: Request Invoice vs Batch With Future Order

Some stores use an invoice-style checkout experience.

If the store allows checkout without shipping

You'll submit the order after selecting your shipping address.

The seller will then:

• Choose shipping method
• Add shipping cost and any other fees (if applicable)
• Issue an invoice

If batching is enabled

Before checkout you may choose one of:

• Issue invoice (finalize this order for invoicing)
• Batch with a future order (hold the order to combine later)

This selection is stored as checkout_grouping:

• invoice
• batch

Payment method selection

Depending on the store's setup:

• You may select a payment method at order time, or
• You may choose payment after the invoice is issued

If you're unsure, check your orders page — it will show whether payment is required and the current balance.
