Sending online invoices with ZipBooks accelerates payment by 17.5 days on average.
Invoicing made easy
ZipBooks is free cloud accounting software that allows you to create and send an invoice in seconds. Just log in, create a new invoice, select a client, and opt to add unbilled time to that invoice. When including that time, you’ll have the option to bill by month or by project. This allows you to bill a client for only a certain portion of the time you worked. Or, you can bill for all of the time you have recorded on a project.
You don’t need to wait until the end of the day to catch up on paperwork. Feel free to send an invoice while you’re still with a client. Or, begin filling out an invoice when you have a spare minute and save it to send later. It’s never been easier to invoice than with a free ZipBooks account.
