Generating WooCommerce Invoices for Free Orders

Last updated on March 25, 2026

In WooCommerce stores, 100% off coupons drive sales by letting customers grab items for free. This makes shopping better and encourages customers to return for more. Using WebToffee’s WooCommerce PDF Invoices, Packing Slips, Delivery Notes, and Shipping Labels plugin, store owners can easily generate invoices for free purchases made from the store by enabling the Generate invoices for free orders option.

Generating invoices for free orders

Here are the detailed steps:

  1. Navigate to Invoice/Packing > Invoice > General from the WordPress dashboard.
  2. Under the General section, find the Automate invoice creation option.
  3. From the dropdown, select the order statuses for which you wish to auto-generate invoices.
  4. Now, scroll down to the Others section.
  5. Enable the Generate invoices for free orders option.
  6. Finally, click on Update Settings.

Use Case

The store owner chooses “Completed” and “Processing” as the order statuses for auto invoice generation, alongside enabling the option to generate invoices for free orders. For instance, if a customer uses a 100% off coupon to make a purchase, resulting in a free order, and the order status changes to “Completed” or “Processing,” the plugin will automatically generate an invoice for the order.

In conclusion, WebToffee’s plugin makes it simple to generate invoices for free orders by enabling a dedicated setting and selecting the appropriate order statuses. This ensures that even 100% discounted purchases are properly documented, helping maintain accurate records while delivering a seamless experience for both store owners and customers.
