Troubleshoot invoices

Use this page when invoice information is missing, invoice amounts differ from the Cloudflare dashboard, or company details do not appear as expected.

Change in billing contact information

Symptom

Invoices are sent to the wrong billing contact.

Fix

Update your Cloudflare billing email address as soon as possible.

Change in Cloudflare subscription or account

Symptom

An invoice appears after you change a plan, add a domain, or turn on an add-on service.

Cause

The invoice data corresponds to the date your Cloudflare account changed. You are charged immediately for the plan, additional domain, or add-on service. An invoice is available in the Cloudflare dashboard within 24 hours of the account change.

Billing periods are 30 days. Payments for all recurring monthly costs are processed on the last day of the billing period. Invoices are generated the same day and will appear in the Billing section of the Cloudflare dashboard within 24 hours.

Cloudflare invoice without company name

Symptom

Your invoice does not include your company name, VAT ID, or Tax ID/EIN.

Fix

To add your business or company name, VAT ID, or Tax ID/EIN on future invoices, update your billing information.

Inconsistent invoice and payment amounts

Symptom

The invoice amount does not match the amount shown in the Cloudflare dashboard.

Cause

If your Cloudflare payment is past due and you order additional services, the past due amount is added to your invoice. This may cause inconsistencies between the invoice and what you see in the Cloudflare dashboard. After the account is current, the amounts in the Cloudflare dashboard update.

Still stuck?

If the invoice discrepancy remains after one billing period, contact Cloudflare support with the invoice number and account ID.
