As a default settings, our Billdu app sends documents from our mailing server. That means they come from our email address invoices@mail.billdu.com. We also display your business name.
Example of an invoice in Gmail
If your customer doesn't want to open the link, by clicking on "Click here to download PDF" a PDF file is downloaded directly.
The email message comes with a blue View invoice button. When clicked, a window with your invoice opens. Your customer can download a PDF file, pay the invoice, (if you use online payments), create a delivery note, accept an estimate/quote or print it out.
When you send your documents with Billdu, you'll find it in your Inbox. The replies of your customers and all communication appears in the Inbox like a chat. If you don't read your inbox message, we send you an email with the message within 5 minutes.
If your client uses Billdu, the Inbox operates as chat or messenger. You can chat with your client, send documents, videos, images or photos.

iOS: Billdu uses your native iOS mail app to send emails
