FAQs

Is this really free?

Yes! Lendio’s free self-service plan has a $0 monthly payment, which means you pay nothing out of pocket to maintain your account. You can create invoices, track your income and expenses, and generate your income statements for free!

Is there a free version of FreshBooks?

No, there’s no free version of Freshbooks. Their least expensive plan, which only lets you send invoices to five clients, costs $6.00 per month.
If you have more than five clients, you’ll need to pay at least $10.00 per month, which lets you have up to 50 clients, or $20 per month, which lets you have unlimited clients.
