Recurring invoices allow you to schedule and send invoices automatically. If you use online payments, you can also set up automatic payments on your recurring invoices to get paid on schedule.
Create your recurring invoice
Recurring invoices can also be created through checkouts. Learn how to Set up a checkout that processes recurring payments.
On the left-side menu, choose Sales & Payments > Recurring Invoices. Click Create a recurring invoice to get started.
On the next page, you can customize your invoice. In the first section, you can edit the invoice title, your business information, and your logo.
Next, you can add your customer, products, or services and any associated sales taxes, payment due date, currency, and any other details in your notes. There is extra space in the footer if required.
New products and services and customers can be added from within their respective sections under Sales in the left menu, or during the invoice creation process. 
Click Save and Continue to move to the next step.
You can also customize your invoice from the Business settings menu, where you can choose a template and accent color, edit your columns, and upload your logo.
Set your schedule
This sets the rule for when Wave will create and send the invoices to your customer. You choose the frequency, start date, end date, and time zone, to ensure your customer receives your invoice on the correct day. For more information about the scheduler and the customizations available, see Understanding the recurring invoice scheduler.

Select the payment method
Choose automatic recurring payments to automatically bill your customer and process payments for each invoice. Or, choose manual payments for your customer to manually pay each recurring invoice.
For both automatic and manual payments, your customer can pay by credit card or bank payment. They can also use Apple Pay to make manual payments.
If you are not yet on the updated online payments experience, customers will have the option to pay by debit card, but not Apple Pay.
If the customer will pay automatically by credit card and has multiple cards saved on their profile, select a card. Or, select Add a new credit card, and if you don't have the customer's card details, click Request Credit Card. Wave will send the customer a payment pre-authorization request.
Automatic recurring bank payments are available only if your customer connects to their bank through Plaid.
Wave is unable to support automatic recurring bank payments made through Chase bank. Customers must manually enter their Chase bank details instead.
Once you've made your selection, click Next to proceed.
Select the sending method
Next, you can choose whether you'd like to automatically have your invoice sent to your customer each time it is created, or manually send the invoice each time Wave generates one for you.
If you select automatic payments, you can only select automatic sending. Your customer will receive a payment receipt with a link to the invoice each time they are billed.
Automatic sending of recurring invoices and manual sending via Wave are available to businesses that accept online payments through Wave or subscribe to Wave's Pro Plan.
If you choose automatic sending, next select your Send from and Send to addresses, and enter your email message. With a Pro Plan subscription, you can customize the default email message your customers see with their recurring invoice.
If you choose manual sending, you can update the email addresses and message when you send the invoice.
Click Next to continue.
Review the details
Review the details you have selected, and scroll down to see a preview of your invoice. When you're ready, click Approve and start recurring invoice to activate the schedule.
Review the details of your recurring invoice at any time by heading to the Sales & Payments > Recurring Invoices page. Here, you can view details such as the start and end date, schedule, and invoice amount.
