Platforms hold the data for every job you complete, so they self-bill you: the platform raises your payout invoice, applies VAT where you’re registered, and pays. You don’t submit your own invoices for platform work.
Key points
- The platform invoices from its own data.
- VAT applied where you’re VAT-registered.
- No submitting your own invoices.
- A compliant copy each period.
Payouts handled for you
Your completed jobs feed the platform’s self-billed invoice run, so payouts are accurate and on schedule.
