Send a professional invoice in under a minute β€” and keep your money. FairInvoice is the honest invoice, estimate and receipt maker: unlimited invoices free forever, no account, no uploads, and a fair pay-once option for Pro. Your paperwork belongs to you; we don't rent it back. WATCH YOUR INVOICE BUILD ITSELF Type a line item and the finished PDF updates in front of you. On iPad the editor splits in two: the form on the left, a live preview of the real PDF on the right, keystroke by keystroke. What you see is exactly what your client gets. UNLIMITED INVOICES, FREE FOREVER No monthly invoice cap. No "three free, then pay" bait. Create as many invoices and receipts as your work needs, share them as clean PDFs, and never hit a wall. Free means free. SEE WHO OWES YOU The dashboard totals what's outstanding, flags overdue invoices with days-late badges, and charts what you've been paid month by month. Mark an invoice paid with one swipe. AN INVOICE IN UNDER A MINUTE Pick a client (or add one inline), tap in line items from your saved-items library, set tax and a discount, done. Auto-numbering keeps INV-0042 tidy for you, and "duplicate last invoice" makes repeat work instant. ESTIMATES THAT WIN THE JOB Send an estimate, get the nod, then convert it to an invoice in one tap β€” client, line items and numbers carry over, linked both ways. Receipts for cash jobs take seconds. Estimates are a Pro feature; your first one is free to try. LOOK PROFESSIONAL Three clean PDF templates. Add your logo, pick an accent color, and put your payment instructions β€” bank details, payment handles, anything you type β€” right on the PDF. Localized output too: your currency, your date format, full right-to-left support. YOURS. PRIVATE. OFFLINE. No account, no sign-in, no cloud. Every client, document and number stays on your device. FairInvoice works on a job site with no signal, and your business isn't our data β€” the app collects nothing, not even anonymous analytics. GENUINELY USEFUL, FREE FOREVER - Unlimited invoices and receipts - Unlimited clients and saved items - The Ledger template, shared as a clean PDF - The who-owes-me dashboard - Outstanding-balance widget - One estimate to try FAIRINVOICE PRO β€” PICK HOW YOU PAY Pro adds all three templates and accent colors, your logo on every PDF, no footer credit, unlimited estimates with one-tap conversion, CSV export, custom number prefixes and the larger widgets. - Monthly β€” $2.99/month after a 7-day free trial - Yearly β€” $19.99/year after a 14-day free trial (best value) - Lifetime β€” $29.99 once. Yours forever. Not a subscription, never renews. Subscriptions auto-renew until canceled; cancel anytime in your App Store settings, at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Prefer to never subscribe? The lifetime unlock costs less than a season of the typical invoice-app subscription β€” and you never pay again. WHO IT'S FOR Handymen, landscapers, cleaners, electricians, freelancers, tutors, side hustles β€” anyone who bills their own customers and would rather keep the money than rent an app. FairInvoice creates and organizes your billing documents. Payment instructions on your PDFs are plain text between you and your client β€” the app never touches the money. Download FairInvoice and send your first invoice today. Questions or feedback?
