Catering invoice software keeps event billing connected to the client and event record.

How CaterCamp’s Catering Invoicing Works
From event confirmation to payment collected — five steps to effortless catering billing.
Finalize the Event
Confirm the event and client, then create a linked draft invoice from the event workspace or the invoice area.
Generate the Invoice
Add the invoice line items, quantities, unit prices, tax, discount, due date, optional deposit amount, and terms your client should see.
Send to Client
Send the invoice email or share its secure link. Clients can view the invoice and use the Stripe or PayPal checkout configured by your organization.
Track Payments Automatically
Verified Stripe or PayPal webhooks update hosted payments. Staff can record manual payments, ACH references, checks, cash, refunds, credits, chargebacks, and processing fees in the ledger.
Reconcile & Report
Review invoice balance and ledger history, then use Reports for collected revenue, outstanding balances, and current-month collections.
