# Billing

> How Scope3 invoices media and platform charges, what remittance details to use, and how to keep billing info current

Scope3 invoices buyers directly. Invoices are issued by the Scope3 finance
team and sent to your billing contact — each invoice consolidates your media
spend for the period and carries the **bank remittance details to pay against**
(Scope3's HSBC account details for the invoice currency). You pay by bank
transfer to the account on the invoice; there is no payment portal and no
saved payment method.

<Note title="IU charges are a separate stream">
  The planned [Organization IU Rate
  Card](/v2/buyer/billing/organization-iu-rate-card) covers platform activity
  across buyer, storefront, and Murph workloads. It has not been published, so
  its pilot plan values, IU denomination, and activity counts are not final or
  live invoice charges. This page describes the current media-invoice flow.
  Existing accepted media-pricing arrangements remain unchanged and separate
  from the IU plan.
</Note>

The one thing to keep current is your **billing info** — who the invoice is
addressed to and where it is sent. Manage it in **Settings → Billing** or via
the API (updates are admin-only):

```
GET /api/v2/billing/info
PUT /api/v2/billing/info
```

Authenticate every request with `Authorization: Bearer $SCOPE3_API_KEY`.

## What Scope3 needs to invoice you

The minimum for an invoice you can pay — and that your accounts-payable team
will accept — is a **payer name** and a **payer address**. Beyond that, keep
these current so invoices route correctly:

| Field                     | Purpose                                     |
| ------------------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| Billing contact name      | Who the invoice is addressed to             |
| Billing email + CC emails | Where the invoice is delivered              |
| Phone                     | Finance-team contact for payment queries    |
| Billing address           | The payer address printed on the invoice    |
| Tax ID                    | VAT/EIN or equivalent for your jurisdiction |

## Where the remittance details come from

Bank remittance details are printed **on each invoice** — you do not need to
request them separately, and you should always pay against the details on the
invoice you received. Scope3 maintains a bank account per invoicing currency,
so the remittance details match the currency you are billed in.

## When invoices arrive

Invoices are issued from Scope3 on your billing cycle, covering the media
spend accrued in the period, with payment due per your net terms. Questions
about a specific invoice go to the Scope3 finance contact listed on it.

## Billing activity

The **Invoice activity** section at the top of the Invoices tab on the org
Billing page shows invoice activity as it happens — status, what it's for,
currency, amount, and due/paid date — via
[Get invoice activity](/v2/buyer/billing/tasks/get-invoice-activity). It's
empty until your first billing period closes; nothing is fabricated in the
meantime.
