Billing & invoicing

The Billing tab is where you look after the money side of Eighty-Six: the subscription that keeps your account running, and the invoicing details that appear on the invoices we issue you. It lives inside Settings and is split into two stacked sections on one page — Subscription at the top, Invoicing Details below.

Before you begin

Open Settings from the left navigation, then click the Billing tab. Billing is an organization-level area, so it needs the Manage organization permission (organizations.update). As the restaurant owner you have this by default; an employee only sees the Billing tab once you grant them that permission. Your subscription and invoicing details belong to your whole organization, not to a single restaurant — if you run more than one restaurant under one organization, they share the same plan and invoicing details.

The Billing tab. Your Subscription sits at the top; your Invoicing Details fill the rest of the page.

Your subscription

The Subscription card shows the state of your account at a glance:

• Current plan — the plan you are on and its price, shown per month or per year.
• Renewal or trial date — when your plan renews, when your trial ends, or when a scheduled cancellation takes effect.
• Payment method — the card on file, shown as its brand, the last four digits, and the expiry month and year.

A coloured status badge in the top corner tells you which situation you are in, and the button underneath does the one thing that situation calls for.

The subscription states

No Active Subscription

Shown as Inactive. You have no live plan yet, so most features are locked. The Subscribe Now button starts you off.

Free Trial

Shown as Trialing. You are inside a free trial and the card tells you the day it ends. Use Activate Subscription to add a payment method and keep access once the trial is over.

Subscription Active

Shown as Active. Everything is running and the card shows the date your plan renews. Manage Billing opens your billing page to change your card or plan.

Cancellation Scheduled

Shown as Canceling. You have cancelled, but you keep access until the end of the period you have already paid for. Reactivate Subscription stops the cancellation and keeps you on.

Payment Failed

Shown as Past Due. A charge did not go through. We retry automatically, but you should use Update Payment Method promptly to avoid losing access.

Starting or changing your plan

The buttons open a secure page rather than saving a form on this screen.

1. Go to Settings and open the Billing tab.
2. To start a plan, click Subscribe Now (or Activate Subscription if you are on a trial). A secure checkout page opens where you enter your card details and confirm.
3. To change an existing plan or card, click Manage Billing. Your secure billing page opens, where you can update your payment method, change or cancel your plan, and review your past payments.
4. When you finish on the secure page, you return to the Billing tab, and the card updates to show your new status.

An active subscription. The status badge, renewal date and payment method are all on this card.

Caution

If your subscription shows Past Due, act quickly. We retry the payment automatically, but if the retries keep failing your access can be restricted. Click Update Payment Method and put a working card on file.

Invoicing details

Below the subscription is the Invoicing Details section. This is the business information that appears on the invoices Eighty-Six issues you — it does not change your plan or take a payment. Fill in whatever applies to your business and country; blank fields are simply left off. Everything here is optional, and it is stored for your whole organization.

The company fields

• Company Name — the legal name of the business being invoiced, for example Acme Restaurant LLC.
• VAT Number — your VAT registration number (in Italy, your partita IVA), for example IT12345678901.
• Tax Code — your tax code (in Italy, the codice fiscale), for example RSSMRA85M01H501Z.
• PEC Email — your certified email address (in Italy, posta elettronica certificata) used for official correspondence, for example company@pec.it.
• SDI Code — the seven-character recipient code used for electronic invoicing in Italy (the Sistema di Interscambio code), for example A1B2C3D. The box will not accept more than seven characters.

The billing address

Underneath, a separate Billing Address card holds the address used for invoicing:

• Street — the street and number, for example 123 Main St.
• City — for example New York.
• ZIP — the postal code, for example 10001.
• Country — for example United States.

Invoicing Details. Fill in the fields that apply to your business, then save.

Saving your invoicing details

1. Edit any of the invoicing or billing-address fields.
2. The Save invoicing details button at the bottom, greyed out until now, becomes active.
3. Click Save invoicing details. Your details are stored and used on your next invoice.

Tip

The invoicing fields are geared towards Italian e-invoicing (PEC and SDI in particular). If your business is elsewhere, leave those two empty and just fill in your company name, VAT or tax number and billing address — the empty fields are ignored.
