We started this because getting paid should not require a spreadsheet, a stack of paper invoices, or a $50/month tool built for enterprises with an accounts payable department.
BillyPaid is a simple invoicing and payment-management tool for freelancers, trades, and small businesses. You create an invoice, estimate, or quote in a couple of minutes, send it, and get notified the moment your client pays.
Built for the business that just needs to get paid
Most invoicing software is either too basic (a plain PDF you fill in by hand every time) or too complex (built for finance teams, not the person actually doing the work). Neither is great for a freelancer sending five invoices a month or a trades business quoting jobs from a van.
BillyPaid asks the right questions once, your business details, your client, what you’re billing for, and reuses everything the next time. It is not accounting software. It is the fastest path from finishing a job to getting paid for it.
What we build
We currently cover the core documents a freelancer or small business actually sends:
- Invoice - the request for payment after work is done
- Estimate - a good-faith figure before the scope is locked in
- Quote - a fixed price your client can approve online
- Receipt - automatic proof of payment, no extra step
- Credit note - a clean way to correct an invoice or issue a refund
- Recurring invoice - retainers and subscriptions billed on autopilot
We also cover longer-tail documents, payment reminders, purchase orders, delivery notes, time and materials invoices, proforma invoices, and statements of account, for businesses that need them.
Why we built it
Chasing payment is the least favorite part of running a small business, and it’s usually a process problem, not a people problem: no payable link, no reminder system, no single place to see who owes what. BillyPaid fixes the process so you can spend less time on admin and more time on the work.
Free to start
Creating a document is free. A free account is required to save your clients, brand your documents, and access every tool in one place. Team seats are available when you’re ready to add people to your account.
A note on what this is not
BillyPaid helps you create and send billing documents and get paid faster. It is not a substitute for a bookkeeper or accountant, and it does not file your taxes for you. For most freelancers and small businesses, it is exactly the tool you need between finishing a job and getting paid for it.
