Create Invoices Without Leaving Telegram
Customer asks for an invoice on Telegram? Tell Notis what to invoice for, and it creates a draft invoice in Stripe instantly—with all line items, dates, and customer details synced.
Trigger
New Message Received
Triggered when your bot receives a new message in a private chat, group, or supergroup. To receive every message in a group, Privacy Mode must be disabled for the bot in BotFather.
Action
Create an invoice
Creates a new draft stripe invoice for a customer; use to revise an existing invoice, bill for a specific subscription (which must belong to the customer), or apply detailed customizations.
Why this helps
Every time a customer asks for an invoice on Telegram, you leave the conversation to log into Stripe, manually enter details, and then come back. It breaks focus and slows billing cycles.
- Create invoices without opening Stripe—stay in Telegram for the entire billing conversation
- Include line items, amounts, and descriptions directly in your Telegram instruction
- Auto-sync customer email and subscription details into the invoice
- Send draft invoices to customers instantly for approval before finalizing
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Stripe to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: "When someone asks for an invoice on Telegram, create a Stripe invoice for [their subscription/service] with today's date."
- 3Choose "New Message Received" as the trigger.
- 4Select your channel for notification when invoices are created.
- 5Test by asking Notis to create an invoice in your Telegram chat and confirm it appears in Stripe as a draft.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis create invoices for one-time charges or only subscriptions?
Both. Tell Notis what to invoice for—a subscription renewal, a one-time service, or custom line items—and it will create the invoice in Stripe accordingly.
Will the invoice be automatically sent to the customer?
Notis creates it as a draft in Stripe. You can set up your automation to send it immediately, or review first and send from the Stripe dashboard—your choice.
What if I need to invoice multiple customers at once?
This workflow handles single requests from Telegram. For bulk invoicing, use a scheduled (cron) automation to batch-create invoices on a set schedule.
