How to download an invoice or receipt
Every purchase emails you a receipt โ subject "Your receipt โ Order [number]". To get it again later, sign in, open the order from Account โ Orders, and press Download receipt (PDF). If you need a company invoice with your business name, address and VAT number on it, that's self-serve too: fill in your company details once at Account โ Billing details and the same button produces a company invoice instead. You don't need to email us for it, and there's nothing to wait for.
Below: getting the receipt, switching to a company invoice, and the one thing to get right before you download.
Your receipt
The receipt email arrives after every successful purchase and covers what most people need for expenses: the order number, what you bought, the date, the amount in USD, and how you paid.
To download it again:
- Sign in at eflexsim.com.
- Go to Account โ Orders and open the order.
- Press Download receipt (PDF).
Company invoices
If you're buying for a business and need a document with your company on it rather than just your name:
- Go to Account โ Billing details.
- Fill in your company name and billing address. Both are required โ the invoice can't be produced without them.
- Add your VAT or tax number if you have one. This is optional, and it's the field most people are actually after.
- Save.
- Open the order and switch the invoice to Company, then download.
The PDF carries your company name, address, VAT number and our business details, which is what expense systems and tax filings generally ask for.
If your company details aren't filled in yet, the download button tells you so and links you straight to the form rather than failing silently.
You can also set company invoices as your default at Account โ Billing details, so future orders are already set that way.
Get the details right before you download
The first download locks the business details onto that invoice. We snapshot your company name, address and VAT number at that moment and keep them on that order for good.
That's deliberate โ an invoice you've already filed shouldn't quietly change afterwards. But it does mean that if you later correct your address or add a VAT number, already-downloaded invoices keep the old details. Re-downloading gives you the same document, not an updated one.
So if you've just moved offices or your VAT registration is new, update Account โ Billing details first, then download. If you've already taken an invoice with the wrong details, email support@eflexsim.com with the order number.
If you bought as a guest
You can still get to it. Buying created an account on the email address you used, with the order in it โ set a password from the "set your password" email, or use Forgot password on the sign-in screen, and the order and its receipt are there. See guest checkout vs creating an account.
The receipt email we sent at the time is also a valid record on its own.
Frequently asked questions
QDo I have to email support for a VAT invoice?
No. Fill in your company details at Account โ Billing details and download it yourself. It's immediate.
QIs a VAT number required?
No. Company name and billing address are required; the VAT number is optional and appears on the invoice when you provide one.
QI downloaded an invoice with the wrong company details.
Update Account โ Billing details for future orders. For an invoice already issued, email support@eflexsim.com with the order number โ that one is locked by design and we have to change it at our end.
QCan I get a receipt for a refund?
A refund sends its own email confirming the amount, and the order shows as Refunded in your history. See how long does a refund take.
QCan I download everything for a whole year at once?
Not from the account โ download them individually, or email support@eflexsim.com with the date range you need.
QDoes the receipt show how I paid?
Yes, the card brand and last four digits, or the wallet name if you used Apple Pay or Google Pay. Where we can't identify it, it reads "Card on file" rather than guessing.
QIs there tax on the invoice?
The price you paid is the total โ see are taxes and VAT included.
QHow long are receipts kept?
As long as the order is in your account, which is indefinitely unless you delete the account.
