Hello!
Is it possible to send an invoice directly to a client's phone number? I tried, but PayPal requested an email address and wouldn't allow me to send it.
Thanks,
Jeanne

On the invoice though, click on the Bill To field and click Add new customer. Add email address and phone number, etc but I am not sure if the invoice will get sent to the phone number or the email address, or both.
Instead, you can send a money request which allows phone numbers:
Here’s how to send a money request:
- Click Pay & Get Paid at the top of the page.
- Under 'Accept Payments', click Request money.
- Enter the person's email or mobile number, then click Next.
- Enter the amount, select the currency and click Request Now.
Edit: All I am seeing is add name or email address:

"Send an invoice to multiple recipients
Send the same invoice to up to 100 recipients by clicking Bill multiple customers and entering each recipient’s name or email address in the Bill to field. We’ll send a separate invoice to each recipient.
If you include your recipient’s email, we’ll send the invoice. If you include only your recipient’s name, we’ll create a payable invoice. You can then print and deliver the invoice yourself, or share a link to the invoice with your customer. (Because invoices contain your customers’ personal information, never share the invoice link in a public forum.)"
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
