Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.4
GPA, above 74 of the 127 other accounting and invoicing tools we grade
Bookipi is a small-business toolkit built around invoicing. It creates invoices, estimates, receipts and proposals, takes card payments, and syncs between the web and its mobile app. A free plan allows three invoices a month, and two paid plans lift the document limits.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Bookipi, taken from its own pages and our grades.
There is no ledger or bookkeeping, and the AI website builder is a separate purchase.
- 1
Best for freelancers who send a few invoices a month
Bookipi makes invoices, estimates, receipts and proposals and syncs between the web and its phone apps.
- 2
Paid plans start at $7.60 a month
As its pricing page puts it: US$7.60 per month, billed annually (US$9.99 billed monthly).
- 3
There is a free plan
Up to 3 invoices and 3 e-signatures a month, counting quotations, credit notes and estimates as invoices.
- 4
It runs on 3 platforms
Web, iOS and Android.
- 5
Invoices and estimates
Create and send invoices, estimates, credit notes and receipts, and save or convert them between document types.
- 6
Card payments and deposits
The plan table lists card payments, deposits and Tap to Pay on iPhone and Android, the last in select countries.
- 7
Recurring invoices and reminders
The plan table lists recurring invoices and automatic overdue reminders among the invoicing features.
- 8
A 2.4 GPA, above 74 of 127
That is against the other accounting and invoicing tools we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 9

The report card
Best for freelancers who send a few invoices a month
Bookipi makes invoices, estimates, receipts and proposals and syncs between the web and its phone apps. But the free plan stops at 3 invoices a month, and quotes and credit notes count toward that. There is no ledger or bookkeeping, and the AI website builder is a separate purchase.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | B | Starter is US$7.60 a month on yearly billing, inside the category's cheapest quarter, but it only gets you unlimited invoices and 2 proposals a month. Professional jumps to US$39. |
| Free plan and trial | C | A free plan of 3 invoices and 3 e-signatures a month. That's a cap you'll hit, with quotes and credit notes counted as invoices. |
| Features | C | Invoices, estimates, card payments, recurring invoices and proposals. It does invoicing fully, which is a smaller job than accounting: no ledger and no bookkeeping. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating on record, and you set up your business details, templates and payment connection first. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web plus iOS and Android apps, with Gmail. No desktop app. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who Bookipi is for
- Fits if you send a handful of invoices a month from your phone
- Works for freelancers who also send quotes and proposals
Who it is not for
- Tight if you stay free: 3 invoices a month, and quotes and credit notes count toward it
- Not for you if you need bookkeeping, because there is no ledger
- Watch out: Starter allows only 2 proposals a month, and Professional is US$39
- Watch out: Australian users pay 10% GST on top, and Tap to Pay is only in some countries

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
The plain part of Bookipi you could make: invoicing, quotes and estimates, expense tracking and appointment booking. What surrounds it you could not. The 2 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
It costs $91.20 a year.
What you could make
- Invoicing, quotes and estimates, expense tracking and appointment booking: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. Bookipi’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
