Creating invoices for cash or check event payments

Last updated August 4, 2026

Objective

This guide explains how to record offline payments (cash, check, or other manual payment methods) for events in Recur, ensuring your records stay accurate and attendees are marked as paid.

Key Steps

Step 1: Navigate to Revenue Invoices

  • From the Recur dashboard, go to Revenue > Invoices.

  • Click New Sale and then select Event Payment.

Step 2: Select the Event and Attendee

  • Choose the event the payment is for.

  • Select the attendee who is making the payment.

Step 3: Enter Payment Details

  • Enter the amount being paid (e.g., $25 for a fee).

  • Optional: Add a check number or other reference for the offline payment.

Step 4: Save and Mark as Paid

  • Save the invoice.

  • Mark the payment as Paid and select the payment method (Cash, Check, etc.).

  • This ensures the attendee is registered and shown as paid in the event list.

Cautionary Notes

  • Ensure all offline payments are tracked immediately to prevent duplicate entries or missed payments.

  • Only mark payments as paid once the cash/check is received.

Tips for Efficiency

  • Use the invoice notes section to track check numbers or special instructions.

  • Regularly review event payment reports to reconcile offline and online payments.
