A Cheaper Invoice Simple Alternative for Freelancers

Invoice Simple is easy to use and has iOS and Android apps. Here is where its monthly invoice limits start to cost you, and when a simpler web tool is the better fit.

The short answer: Stay with Invoice Simple if your clients pay by card from the invoice or you invoice from your phone. Switch if you send more than 3 invoices a month: Simple Invoice Generator Pro is $9/month for unlimited invoices with automatic reminders, against $14.99/month for up to 10 invoices a month with due date reminders on Invoice Simple Plus, or $21.99/month for unlimited invoices on Premium.

We make Simple Invoice Generator, so this isn't a neutral review. To keep it useful, every Invoice Simple fact below comes from Invoice Simple's own pages (listed under Sources) and was checked on 16 October 2026, and our own gaps are in the table too.

Why people look for an Invoice Simple alternative

  • Essentials ($6.99/month) stops at 3 invoices a month.
  • Due date reminders start on Plus at $14.99/month, which still stops at 10 invoices a month.
  • Unlimited invoices need Premium at $21.99/month.

Stay with Invoice Simple if…

  • Your clients pay by card from the invoice.
  • You invoice from your phone and want a native app.
  • You send estimates, take deposits or collect client signatures.

Switch to Simple Invoice Generator if…

  • You send more than 3 invoices a month and want unlimited invoices for $9/month.
  • You want late clients reminded automatically without paying $14.99/month.
  • You bill clients in different currencies and pick the currency on each invoice.
  • You want to try it first: make and download an invoice without creating an account.

What you give up

Simple Invoice Generator does one job: creating, sending and tracking invoices. Before switching, know that it does not have:

  • Card payments on the invoice. Clients pay you directly, by bank transfer, PayPal or however you ask, and you mark the invoice paid.
  • Recurring invoices. You can duplicate last month's invoice in one click, but nothing is sent on a schedule.
  • Accounting. No expenses, time tracking, bank feeds or reports beyond a monthly revenue chart.
  • A mobile app, team accounts or an import tool. It runs in any browser, including on your phone, for one user.

Moving over from Invoice Simple

  1. Keep your past invoices in Invoice Simple, or download them as PDFs for your records.
  2. Open the editor and fill in your first invoice. No sign-up is needed to try it.
  3. Type your next invoice number (for example INV-0143) so your numbering carries on, and set your usual currency, notes and payment terms.
  4. Create a free account to save it and email it to your client with the PDF attached. Your company details, logo, notes and terms fill in automatically from then on.
  5. Save each client the first time you invoice them, and they fill in with one click next time.
