Invoicing for freelancers and small businesses

Use the same invoice essentials for different kinds of work: clear descriptions, agreed prices, a due date and payment instructions.

Freelancers

Invoice a fixed project fee or itemize hours at your agreed rate. Add the project or billing period to each description so the client can recognize the work.

Consultants and studios

Bill for consulting sessions, deliverables or retainers. Reuse client details and duplicate a saved invoice, then review the new dates, scope and amount.

Consulting and studio workflows

Contractors and service businesses

List labor, materials and other agreed charges on separate lines. Include a job reference, service address or payment instructions when the client needs them.
