Include links to invoices in the Shipping Confirmation email

Shipping confirmation emails are a useful place to include invoice links, especially once an order has been fulfilled and is on its way.

With Sufio, an invoicing app for Shopify stores, customers can open their invoice directly from this email, making it easier to access the document when they need it.

The online version of the invoice

Once customers click the invoice link, they will be redirected to the online version of their invoice.

From there, they can download or print the invoice and view other documents related to the same order.

If the invoice has not been paid yet, customers can complete the payment online using their credit or debit card.

The online version of an invoice

To add a link to the online version of the invoice in the shipping confirmation email template:

  1. In your Shopify admin, go to the Settings → Notifications → Customer notifications page.
  2. In the Order processing section, click Shipping Confirmation.
  3. Insert the following code snippet into the Email body (HTML) field:
<div class="invoice-link">
	<a href="{{ shop.url }}/apps/sufio/invoice/?id={{ id }}&number={{ order_number }}">View invoice</a>
</div>
  1. Click Save to apply the changes.

PDF version of the invoice

If you would rather let your customers download a PDF version of their invoice directly, use the following code snippet:

<div class="invoice-link">
	<a href="{{ shop.url }}/apps/sufio/invoice/download/?id={{ id }}&number={{ order_number }}">Download invoice</a>
</div>

Please note that the PDF version does not allow customers to pay unpaid invoices online with their credit or debit card.
