Worth knowing
Invoice Generator
- It is an invoice maker, not bookkeeping: it has no ledger, bank feeds, expense tracking or tax reports.
- Without an account, downloaded invoices live only in the browser's local storage; clearing it deletes them.
- The pages read do not state any fee for card or bank payments; check the payment screen before relying on it.
InvoiceFly
- There is no free plan; the trial needs a payment card and converts to a subscription.
- Each business needs its own account and subscription; multiple businesses on one account is not supported yet.
- Stripe and PayPal charge their own card-processing fees on top of the subscription.
- The weekly plan costs $8.99 a week, so it is the more expensive way to pay over a year.

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
