Step-by-step: download invoices from Stripe
- 1
Open Billing history in the Stripe Dashboard
Sign in at dashboard.stripe.com, then go to Settings → Billing → Invoice history. If you manage multiple Stripe accounts, use the account switcher in the top-left corner first.
- 2
Pick the date range you need
Use the date filter above the table to narrow down by month, quarter, or a custom range. Leave it blank to see the full history.
- 3
Download the PDF for each invoice
Click any invoice row to open it, then hit Download PDF. For bulk exports, use the "Export to CSV" button. Note that only gives you a summary, not the actual PDFs.
- 4
Save the files somewhere you will find them later
Rename each PDF with a consistent pattern (date + vendor + amount) and drop it in the folder your accountant expects. Skip this step at your own peril.
About Stripe billing
Stripe is great at charging your card. It is less great at handing you a neat pile of PDFs at the end of the month.
If you pay for Stripe services as a business (Billing, Atlas, Tax, Sigma, Terminal hardware), every charge generates an invoice sitting quietly in your Dashboard. Finding all of them before quarter-end is a separate sport.
Stripe invoices are issued in USD by default for US-based accounts, even if your card is billed in EUR, GBP, or another currency. When you reconcile against your bank statement, use the "Amount due" line on the PDF as the source of truth, not the figure on your card statement.
About Stripe
Stripe Inc. is a payments infrastructure company founded in 2010 by Patrick and John Collison. Based in San Francisco and Dublin, it processes payments for millions of businesses worldwide and operates a suite of adjacent products: Atlas for incorporation, Tax for sales tax compliance, Sigma for SQL-based reporting, Terminal for in-person hardware. Each product has its own billing flow, and invoices for each live in slightly different corners of the Dashboard.
Manual vs automated

Automated with Inbox Ledger

Why people stop doing this by hand
One Stripe invoice a month is fine. Three products, two business entities, and a year of history is a weekend. We see teams running Stripe Billing plus Stripe Atlas plus an old legacy charge they forgot about, and they pay someone an hourly rate to click through all of it every quarter.
The CSV export helps with totals but does not give you the PDFs, which is what most accountants actually need for their audit trail. The API works but requires a developer. If you manage more than one Stripe account (agencies, holding companies, accountants with client logins), you multiply the whole problem by however many accounts you have.
Stripe is one of the portals our Chrome Extension auto-detects. Install it, visit the Stripe billing page, and the extension picks up new invoices in the background. No OAuth setup, no forwarding address, no clicking through each one. Works alongside the main Inbox Ledger sync for users who prefer to stay in their browser.
Next step
If you only ever buy one thing from Stripe and never change accountants, manual is fine. If you run a real business and this page has already rung a bell, connect Stripe to Inbox Ledger once and let new invoices land in your dashboard on their own.
Where to look in the dashboard
- Settings → Billing → Invoice history is the main location
- Developers → Billing receipts shows one-off platform charges separately from subscriptions
- Your personal email receipts go to the account owner, not to all team members. Check the Team page if someone is missing them.
- Stripe Atlas invoices live at dashboard.stripe.com/atlas/billing
Before you start — quick checklist
- Amounts on the PDF match what Stripe charged your card
- The invoice number is present and not a draft reference
- Your legal entity name and billing address are correct on the invoice
- VAT or GST is broken out if you are in a jurisdiction that requires it
- The file is a finalized PDF, not an HTML preview or a receipt
Pro tips
- Stripe sometimes issues separate invoices for subscription fees and metered usage. Check both sections.
- Use the search bar at the top of Billing history to find an invoice by number instead of scrolling.
- If you need a past-dated invoice reissued, contact Stripe support. You cannot edit finalized invoices yourself.
- Invoices for Stripe Atlas, Stripe Tax, and Stripe Sigma live under their own billing sections, not the main one.
- Bookmark the billing URL and keep 2FA enabled. Most "missing invoice" panics come from logging into the wrong account.
