All invoices on Stripe have different statuses from the moment they are created to the moment payment is made. The status of each invoice is displayed next to it on Stora.

Here is a quick guide to explain what each status means:

When you manually create a subscription in the Stora application, the resulting invoice remains in a "Draft" status for approximately one hour. This one-hour period allows time for reviewing and adjusting the invoice before finalisation. Once this time has elapsed, the invoice is automatically finalised, and the associated customer’s payment method is charged without manual intervention. This integrated workflow provides flexibility and ensures accuracy in billing processes.

The invoice has been finalised and is awaiting payment. This status may be found next to invoices that are being retried due to a previous failed attempt.

This invoice was paid.

This invoice was created by mistake and should be cancelled.

This invoice is unlikely to be paid and should, therefore, be treated as bad debt in your account. You can either void or pay the invoice.
