FreshBooks sells four plans, Lite, Plus, Premium and Select, and the main thing that separates them is how many clients you can bill each month: 5 on Lite, 50 on Plus and no cap from Premium up. Every plan covers one owner, and each extra team member costs $11 a month according to FreshBooks' US pricing page. You can try it for 30 days without a card, and a 30-day money-back guarantee applies once you pay. Introductory discounts run for a set number of months, after which the regular price takes over.

Questions

What people ask about FreshBooks.

What counts as a billable client on FreshBooks?

A billable client is anyone you send an invoice to in a given month. Lite allows 5, Plus allows 50, and Premium and Select have no limit. If you invoice a sixth client on Lite, you need to upgrade, so count your regular customers before choosing.

What does the Lite plan leave out?

Lite skips bank reconciliation, double-entry accounting reports and accountant access. It also has no proposals with e-signatures and no project profitability view. For a freelancer who sends a few invoices and hands paperwork to an accountant once a year, those gaps may not matter. If your accountant wants to log in, Plus is the lowest plan that allows it.

How much does it cost to add my bookkeeper or a contractor?

FreshBooks charges $11 a month for each team member on top of the plan, per its US pricing page. That fee covers employees and contractors who log time or expenses. Advanced Payments is a separate $20 a month add-on, included only in Select.

What happens when the free trial ends?

The trial lasts 30 days and FreshBooks does not ask for a card to start it. When it ends, you pick a plan to keep sending invoices. Plus and Premium often carry an introductory discount for the first few months, so compare the regular price before you commit.

Can I get my money back if FreshBooks does not suit me?

FreshBooks advertises a 30-day money-back guarantee on its pricing page. That gives you a month after your first payment to ask for a refund. The trial itself runs without a contract, so you can test invoicing on real clients before paying anything.
