What happens if an invoice is not paid?

• A. Invoices can be either void.
• B. Invoices become uncollectable.
• C. It can be Void or Uncollectable depending on intent.
• D. Invoices are automatically paid.

Answer: (C)

When an invoice isn’t paid, you have two practical options in Stripe depending on what you want to do with that invoice. You can void the invoice, which cancels it and stops any further payment attempts. Or you can mark it as uncollectible, which records that the invoice is not going to be paid while preserving the history for accounting. Invoices don’t automatically become paid just because they’re unpaid, and they don’t have to be only one of these paths—the choice depends on your intent for that specific invoice.
