Yes! Payments doesn’t make sense for us because we work with corporates (B2B) that don’t use payment links. Now we can’t use invoices because we cannot finalize our invoices (draft invoices are not legally permitted in The Netherlands.
Not only that, but it is pointless to have this tool without a chance to use them because our country where the company is registered doesn’t have a Stripe connection.
I tried several times to see what is going on with Croatia, and I even didn’t get an answer.
We can’t download the invoice because not finalizing the invoice by “Enroll in payments”, but we are a B2B company that doesn’t use online payments!! We just need to put our bank details on the invoice and the customer arrange a bank transfer. So it is very sad that I can’t even use and download the invoice…It is not making any sense. Now means I can’t use the invoice fucntion…
Thanks for flagging this – the good news is that what you’re describing is possible today without using HubSpot payments!
You can create invoices directly from deals or quotes in HubSpot (including using the “Convert to subscription” or**“Convert to invoice”** action on a published quote), and those invoices can be used purely for billing and tracking purposes. A payment processor is not required: invoices support these offline payments, so you can accept payments offline (e.g., bank transfer, EFT, cheque) and then record those payments against the invoice in HubSpot.
