Questions about this template

Is a receipt the same as an invoice?

No. An invoice asks for payment. A receipt confirms that payment has been made.

Can I use it for a part payment?

Yes. Enter the amount received and write what is still owed in the balance box.

Is this template free?

Yes, with a free account. A free account is just an email address and no card, and it includes 3 different templates, counted in total rather than per month. Pro, Lifetime and Team unlock every template.
