01No subscription?

Is there a free invoice app with no subscription?

Yes, but sending from the Invoice Koi app is not it: that needs a subscription. What needs no subscription, no account and no install is the free invoice generator on this site, which makes a PDF invoice in any browser. A few other apps have free plans that send, named below.

In the app, everything up to sending is free. You can install it, set up your business, add clients and rates, and write drafts without paying. The app calls that the Free plan. Issuing a numbered invoice, estimate or receipt is what the subscription is for: £99.99 billed yearly or £9.99 billed weekly, at UK App Store prices, with the details below.

If you need an app that sends for nothing, some do. Of the 12 apps in our comparisons, Wave and Square Invoices put no cap on invoices on their free plans, and Bookipi, Contractor+ and Zoho Invoice have free plans with a cap. Each comparison says what that plan leaves out. If one of them is enough for you, it costs less than any subscription.

Payment collection has separate fees. Koi charges 0.35% on payments collected through it with a subscription, or 0.7% + 0.10 in the payment currency without one, plus Stripe processing fees. Zero-decimal currencies have no fixed part, and payments you record yourself have no Koi fee.

Existing customers keep their promised core document access.

04Leaving

If you stop paying

Your records stay yours. After expiry, view, export or resend issued records and record or collect outstanding payments. New documents need a subscription or eligible trial, except where existing access is preserved.
