How graphic designers bill
Designers typically bill per project or per milestone, sometimes hourly for smaller tasks. It's common to bill a deposit up front and the balance on final delivery.
What to put on a graphic designer invoice
- What's included vs what counts as an extra revision — this prevents scope creep disputes.
- Whether source files (AI, PSD, Figma) are included, and any handover fee.
- Usage rights for the final artwork, especially for logos and brand assets.
- The essentials every invoice needs: your details, the client's, a unique number, issue and due dates, an itemised list, the total, and how to pay.
Payper builds all of this for you — add your logo and payment methods once and they appear on every invoice. Create your graphic designer invoice →
