Anyone use a web-based automated billing service that they would recommend? I'm looking for something that will send out an invoice for a predetermined amount to clients (via email).
I'm looking for this to handle small regular payments such as hosting, domains etc.
Thanks for your suggestions!

Cashboard - "Scheduled Invoices"

The single downvote(as of typing this) on every post is kinda hilarious.
I've been using motivapp.com to manage everything from proposals->contracts->invoices->...
I really love the way it works as a web app, one caveat, it's had random bugs pop up that make me swear up and down that I will switch to a new service. Then the buggy crap rights itself and I go back to loving it and not wanting to lose an app that I holds a few years worth of client data.

If you are a VISP there is software geared up for it exactly - bad news is I have totally forgotten it's name. It sits on the server and invoices for all elements added to a hosting package / renewals and one offs etc. as your clients add them via their control panels. It's basically ISP software that includes all the finance stuff and v.automated. Anyone know the name?

Try a few out.
I certainly did including all of the above.
HARVEST / https://www.getharvest.com/ has worked best for me.
Again, try them all and make up your own mind; try not to base your judgement on design, branding or anything superficial BUT on what works best for you.
Godspeed / happy invoicing.
May your CA$H FLOW be plentiful & eternal.
- Sorry, HARVEST has both "Recurring" & "Retainer" options. These are perfect and I use them constantly for hosting, retainer clients, etc.
#Yeahideaist - I'm assuming based on tonality of this "thread" i'll receive 2 downvotes.
Just so said downvoters know, I'm OK with this.

BUMP (not sure what is current or not from last post)
Any recommendations for a single freelancer. A few stable steady clients, a little room to grow. I'd really like to minimize the time spent on the billing/invoice side. Live time tracking I usually just use OS timestamps, notes and memory. Just need billing software to tie a job# to work files and billing files.
Also a thing im wondering about is he convenience of payment options and fees. So far from the previous posts it seems freshbooks might fit what i need best and payments are 2.9%+30c. Any tricks around all that shit beside paid checks. Is the payment processing fess worth it vs wondering if checks bounce and chasing it. Does that even happen a lot?
Any real info from non content generated blogs would be a great help
- The processing fees are standard and most services work by connecting with a PayPal or Stripe account, so the fees come from them.ETM
- I still use Harvest for personal projects and for work, and I am happy with it.ETM
- the site give me little info, but give me the feeling it might be more than i need solo. what do you find are the best pros and cons as a freelancer that matterdeathboy
- for efficiency. not sure if these site slack of info are to get u going but i wish they explained more. unless u dont know until u try and see what works..deathboy
- oh and i mean tricks, like do u tack on a convenience fee, or find its just worth ti to pay the fee and not worry bout checksdeathboy
- 2.9% is way too much. For a $20k project, that'd be $580 just to pay by CC. Perhaps this is useful for Etsy or something like that.fyoucher1

- this is an option too. hows this when it comes to tax time? The non monthly fee is tempting, but does it lack something u would like?deathboy

I've seen this question many times before and never knew the right answer.
But now I use Toggl.
Is sublocked still in Cashboard?

@oey Yes. Still running strong. 10 years now. https://CashboardApp.com
Working on the next generation of the software which will see a major reposition, along with some enhanced capabilities. Very excited for what this year holds.
