Free tier

  • None. FreshBooks has no free plan — only a 30-day free trial ('Try It Free') plus a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Displayed as US$4.60/mo under a limited-time '80% Off for 4 Months' promotion, with the page stating 'Was $23.00'. The Monthly/Yearly toggle advertises 'Extra 10% Off' for yearly but FreshBooks displays no explicit annual dollar figure, so none is published here.

What FreshBooks does that free tools don't

  • Actually collecting the money: card, ACH bank transfer, Apple Pay, Google Pay and Buy Now Pay Later payments taken against the invoice.
  • Chasing unpaid invoices automatically with scheduled late-payment reminders and automatic late fees.
  • The surrounding bookkeeping — expense tracking, receipt scanning, financial and tax-time reports, and direct access for your accountant.

If you need these, FreshBooks is worth paying for. Check the current plan on the vendor's pricing page (opens in a new tab) before you buy.

  • Invoice Generator vs FreshBooks

    Creating a professional itemized invoice

    Biggest trade-off: It cannot take the payment. FreshBooks processes card, ACH, Apple Pay and Google Pay against the invoice; this produces a document and nothing more.
