invoice - new customer accounts

Topic summary

A merchant is seeking a way to add invoice download links to Shopify’s new customer accounts while using a third-party app. Their current provider claims this isn’t possible due to Shopify platform limitations.

Suggested workarounds:

  • Email-based delivery – Apps like Order Printer Pro or Sufio can generate invoices and automatically send download links via email after purchase
  • Customer portal integration – PDF Invoice Generator and similar apps may allow invoice access through customer accounts, though they may require workarounds for the new account system

Order Printer Pro is recommended as a flexible alternative to test, given the current app’s limitations. The issue remains unresolved as the merchant hasn’t confirmed whether they’ve implemented any suggested solution.

Hello,

Has anybody found a solution to have a link to download the invoice from the new customer accounts? We use a third-party app, and they told me that it’s not possible due to Shopify’s limitations.

Hi @michalkoci

Shopify’s new customer accounts don’t natively support invoice downloads, but here are some workarounds

  • Using invoice apps with email links – Apps like Order Printer Pro or Sufio can generate invoices and automatically send a download link via email after purchase.
  • Customer portal integration – Some apps like PDF Invoice Generator allow customers to access invoices from their account, but they may require workarounds for Shopify’s new account system.

Because your third-party app says it’s not possible, I’d suggest testing Order Printer Pro, as it’s one of the more flexible options.
