Yes. How often a family is invoiced comes from the **billing plan** on each child, not a center-wide setting, so one child can be bi-weekly while everyone else stays weekly or monthly.

1. Open the family from **Invoices & Finances → Accounts** and go to the **Setup** tab.
2. Click **Change** next to the child's plan, then pick a bi-weekly plan or type a new name to create one with **Biweekly** as the interval.
3. If the family's fortnight starts on the other Monday, set their own start in the **Bi-weekly cycle** row on the same tab.

Auto-invoicing picks the family up from the next fortnight. If this week's weekly invoice is already out, a super admin voids it and invoices both weeks by hand once.

Full guide, including the week already in progress: [Switch a family to bi-weekly billing](/owners/billing/switch-a-family-to-bi-weekly). Paying ahead but keeping weekly invoices is a [family credit](/owners/billing/family-credits) instead.
