For suppliers: Sending an invoice to Obsidione
Welcome, dear suppliers and partners, to your favorite page: how to invoice us. Yes, we're talking about those magical pieces of paper (or pixels) that transform your hard work into well-deserved compensation. But, let’s face it: sending an invoice is more than just pressing "send." It's an art form, a delicate dance between accuracy and efficiency. And here at Obsidione, we believe in making every step of that dance as smooth as possible - for both of us.
Why is it so important to send the correct invoice, you ask? Well, imagine sending a rocket to space with the wrong coordinates 🚀 Sure, it might get somewhere, but it probably won’t be where you intended! Similarly, an incorrect invoice can set off a chain reaction of delays, confusion, and (dare we say it) no payment at all. And no one likes chasing payments or resolving billing errors—especially when a perfectly formatted invoice could save everyone the trouble.

To ensure a seamless experience, please adhere to the following guidelines for submitting invoices.
