summary: Create a New Invoice
description: 'The invoicing product enables you to bill any customer with an email address and accept digital payments securely from any connected device. You can either use the system generated email or use the invoice payment link in your own communication. You can add discounts and taxes for the entire invoice or for each line item. To customize the invoice to match your brand see [Invoice Settings](https://developer.cybersource.com/api-reference-assets/index.html#invoicing_invoice-settings_update-invoice-settings). The invoice payment page uses Unified Checkout to process the payments.
The availability of API features for a merchant can depend on the portfolio configuration and may need to be enabled at the portfolio level before they can be added to merchant accounts.'

#### CyberSource through VisaNet
Credit card networks cannot process transactions that contain non-ASCII characters. CyberSource through VisaNet accepts and stores non-ASCII characters correctly and displays them correctly in reports. However, the limitations of the credit card networks prevent CyberSource through VisaNet from transmitting non-ASCII characters to the credit card networks. Therefore, CyberSource through VisaNet replaces non-ASCII characters with meaningless ASCII characters for transmission to the credit card networks.
**Important** It is your responsibility to determine whether a field is required for the transaction you are requesting.
#### Invoicing
Email address for the customer for sending the invoice. If the invoice is in SENT status and email is updated, the old email customer payment link won''t work and you must resend the invoice with the new payment link.

For recurring payments in Mexico, the value is the customer''s contract number.
Note Before you request the authorization, you must inform the issuer of the customer contract numbers that will be used for recurring transactions.
#### Worldpay VAP
For a follow-on credit with Worldpay VAP, CyberSource checks the following locations, in the order
given, for a customer account ID value and uses the first value it finds:
1. `customer_account_id` value in the follow-on credit request
2. Customer account ID value that was used for the capture that is being credited
3. Customer account ID value that was used for the original authorization
If a customer account ID value cannot be found in any of these locations, then no value is used.
