My Solo - Invoicing, can i add additional pdf's

Hi,

Ive watched the vids for Lite service. It shows an invoice being generated and below you can drag and drop additional PDFs to the invoice. meaning you can send the invoice with attached pdf also.

 

does the solo app do this aswell? watched videos and couldn't see option.

 

part of our invoicing is sending a pdf report of the service performed.

 

i am after a one stop solution, so unsure if i need solo or lite.

 

with solo can the contactless payment be done on a ipad?

 

with lite, as its cloud based, can contactless payment via phone or ideally ipad be performed through a downloaded app. or is contactless payment via phone only, meaning i require solo

 

thanks :)

  • Hey there Bobby88!

    Thanks for such a thoughtful and detailed question — love that you’re looking for the right fit, and we’re here to help! 🙌

    Let’s break it down:

    📎 Attaching PDFs in Solo:
    While Solo doesn’t currently let you attach PDFs directly to an invoice like Lite does, there’s a clever little workaround! The share sheet is your best friend here. Just tap the share icon when previewing your invoice, then choose to send it via your own email app (instead of sending through the Solo app). This lets you attach extra PDFs (like your service report) before you hit send. Easy!

    💸 Contactless Payments:

    • Solo has Tap to Pay, which works beautifully as an app—but just a heads-up, Solo isn’t optimised for iPads at the moment.
    • Lite, on the other hand, is a web-based platform, not an app—so it doesn’t support Tap to Pay like Solo does. It does have online payments (customers can pay your invoices with a card), but not in-person tap-and-go payments through your device.

    So if in-person contactless payments are a must-have and you're keen to use an iPad, we might not be quite there yet with either product. But if you're using a phone and love the simplicity of in-app invoicing with Tap to Pay, Solo's your one-stop.

    Let me know a bit more about how you’re working day-to-day and what your must-haves are—we’ll help you find the best fit! 😊
