What you get from each charge
Two emails, both for the same charge:- Receipt — confirms the charge went through. Includes the amount, the date, the card’s last four digits, and a “View your receipt” link.
- Invoice — a downloadable PDF with line items, sales tax broken out, your billing address, Rivet’s business details, and an invoice number. This is the document your bookkeeper wants.
Finding past invoices
Two paths.From a past invoice email
Open any past Rivet invoice email. Scroll to the bottom; there’s a “Manage your subscription” or “View past invoices” link. That goes to your billing portal, where every invoice you’ve ever received is listed with a Download PDF button.If you can’t find the email
The customer portal link is auto-generated and tied to your email address. Email hello@getrivet.ca with the subject “Customer portal link” and we’ll generate a fresh one. Takes a business day or less. We do it this way instead of putting a “Billing” tab in the Rivet app because the billing portal is already the source of truth — duplicating the invoice view inside Rivet would mean an extra surface to maintain, with no new information on it.What’s on each invoice
A standard Rivet invoice has:- Invoice number (e.g.
RIV-2026-0042). - Issue date and due date (always the same day for an auto-charge).
- Bill to — your name, practice name, billing address.
- Description —
Rivet — practice phone, video sessions, clinical templates (monthly). - Amount — $65 CAD.
- Sales tax — the HST / GST / PST line, calculated based on your province. See Canadian taxes.
- Total — $65 + sales tax.
- Payment method — “Visa ending in 4242” (or similar).
- Rivet Systems Inc.’s business details — registered business address in Belle River, Ontario, plus our GST/HST number for your tax-credit claims.
Adding a business name or VAT-style detail
If you need invoices addressed to a specific business name (not just your personal name), or you need a specific Canadian Business Number (BN) on the invoice for your records, set those in your billing portal:1
Open the customer portal
Via any past invoice email’s “Manage your subscription” link, or
request a fresh portal link from us.
2
Update billing details
There’s a “Billing information” or “Payment method” section.
Inside is a “Billing details” form with name, business name, and
address fields.
3
Save
Future invoices use the updated details. Past invoices stay as
they were issued — invoices aren’t retroactively re-issued
(and your accountant doesn’t want them to be).
Setting up your bookkeeper’s access
A few options for getting invoices to whoever does your books:- CC them on invoice emails. In the billing portal, you can add additional billing-email recipients. Your bookkeeper gets every receipt and invoice in real time.
- One-time export at year-end. They open your billing portal, download every invoice PDF from the year, done. Takes about five minutes.
- Link to your accounting software. The billing portal connects directly with most Canadian accounting tools (QuickBooks, Xero, Wave). Set it up once; receipts flow in automatically.
Common questions
Can I get a single annual invoice instead of 12 monthly ones? Yes, by request. Email us and we’ll switch your billing to annual upfront. There’s no discount for annual right now, but it’s one invoice instead of 12 if your bookkeeper prefers that. Invoice emails are going to spam. Addstripe.com to your safe
senders list. Most Canadian email providers (Gmail, Outlook, iCloud)
have an allowlist in their spam controls.
I changed my email recently. Will invoices go to the new address?
Only if you updated the email inside the billing portal and
inside Rivet. They’re two separate records (the billing portal handles
payment, Rivet handles your account). If you changed the email with us,
email us and we’ll sync the billing portal to match.
