There are a number of situations where it's useful to send an invoice to your buyer:
- The buyer is purchasing several items from you, and you want to combine them into a single purchase
- You need to change some of the transaction details, such as postage charges or payment method (although this should only be done at the buyer's request)
- The buyer hasn't paid for an auction they've won, and you want to send them a reminder
You can't send an invoice if it's been more than 30 days since the listing ended.

How to combine payments for a buyer
When a buyer purchases more than one item from you, you can combine their purchases into one invoice. It'll save you time, and you can also offer the buyer a postage discount.
To offer combined payments, you'll have to first enable it on your account.
