Invoicing for Ice Cream Shops: Wholesale Tubs, Cart Hire and Cake Orders

An ice cream shop invoices three kinds of customer: cafes buying tubs on account, couples booking the cart for a wedding, and the occasional office ordering cakes. Describe how you bill to Mythex and it builds an invoicing app with statements, deposits, PDFs and a list of who still owes you.

Who it's for

Ice cream shops and gelato makers who supply cafes and restaurants, hire out a cart for events, and currently write invoices in a document or not at all.

What you can build

Monthly statements grouping every tub delivered to a cafe
Trade prices per tub size and flavor
Delivery charges as a separate line
Cart hire deposits on booking and balances before the event
Invoices for office and party cake orders
A paid, unpaid and overdue list

Wholesale on a monthly cycle

Invoicing each delivery to a cafe creates paperwork for both sides. Record deliveries as they happen, then send one invoice per cafe per month listing every drop by date, flavor and tub size. The statement shows exactly how many tubs they took, and you only chase one payment.

Events paid before the cart leaves

A wedding cart booking takes a deposit when the date is confirmed and the balance a week or two before the event, never after. Put the servings, flavors, travel charge and weather policy on the invoice, so the couple knows what they paid for.

Deposit on confirmation
Balance due before the event
Travel and extra serving time as lines

Seasonal cash flow

Most of your income lands in a few warm months. Payment terms that slip by sixty days in August hurt in November. Set clear terms for trade customers, send reminders automatically after the due date, and see overdue totals at a glance.

Mistakes to avoid

Do not invoice cart balances after the event. Do not let trade prices drift between cafes without recording why. And keep allergen and ingredient information on delivery notes for wholesale customers who serve your product.

Questions

Can I send monthly statements to wholesale customers?

Yes. The app can group deliveries into one invoice per month per customer. Emailing them needs an email service you connect.

Can customers pay invoices online?

Yes, with a pay link from a payment provider such as Stripe that you connect with your own account.

Can invoices be downloaded as PDFs?

Yes. Ask for a PDF with your logo, trade terms and bank details.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. You describe how you bill and change it by chatting.

How much does it cost?

The Free plan needs no card. Pro is $25 a month and adds a custom domain, code editing, export and more credits.
