The free invoice app that gets Australian businesses paid

Yes. Start in Daylane Settings → Invoicing, sign in to Free Invoice App and approve the connection as the account owner. From a completed Daylane Job, review the customer and work details, create an invoice draft, then confirm the recipient before sending. The invoice lives in Free Invoice App with your numbering, branding and payment details. You can disconnect from either app.

No. Each app has its own account, plan and billing. Connecting them does not upgrade either plan or combine allowances. Free Invoice App Starter remains free with its usual limits; Pro and Pro+ are purchased separately from Daylane. A paid Free Invoice App plan does not include a Daylane subscription either.

Yes. The Starter plan is A$0 per month, forever - no credit card required to sign up. You can create unlimited invoices, export PDFs, manage clients, track expenses and view reports. Starter includes 7 sends per month, Pro 250 and Pro+ unlimited. Until the 1 October 2026 monthly reset, invoices sent with an available card payment option are exempt. From that reset, they count too. Each CC recipient and manual reminder also uses a send. Allowances reset on the first of each month at 00:00 UTC.

Yes. Invoices include ABN fields, itemised GST calculations and the formatting required for Australian tax invoices, so the documents you send meet ATO requirements out of the box.

Yes. You can cancel monthly or annual billing from Settings at any time. Your paid plan stays active until the end of the current billing period, then you return to the free Starter plan and keep your data.

On Pro+, you can connect your own domain so invoices arrive from an address like invoices@yourbusiness.com.au. Setup takes a few minutes - we provide the DNS records and verify them for you.

Pro+ supports up to two additional team members, each with a viewer (read-only) or editor (full invoicing) role. The account owner keeps full control and can remove members at any time.

Yes, on Pro+. Automated chase sequences follow up every unpaid invoice on a set-and-forget schedule: a friendly nudge 3 days before the due date, a reminder on the due date, and firmer follow-ups 3, 7 and 14 days after. Configure the ladder once in Settings and it runs by itself - each step is sent at most once per invoice, chasing stops the moment an invoice is marked paid, and you can pause it for any individual invoice. Every plan also includes one-click manual reminders.

Yes, on Pro and Pro+. Switch on SMS notifications in Settings and clients who have an Australian mobile number saved also receive a short text - with a link to view and pay the invoice - whenever you send them an invoice or reminder. Pro includes 25 SMS a month; Pro+ includes 100 and also texts on the due date and the 7- and 14-day automated chase steps. Every message names your business, and clients can opt out at any time. Emails always go out as normal alongside the texts, so a client without a mobile saved still gets their invoice.

Yes, on Pro and Pro+. Add material receipts, a signed quote, a variation approval or job photos and they go out attached to the same email as the invoice PDF, so your client has the evidence without you sending a second message. Pro allows 3 files per invoice and Pro+ allows 10, up to 10MB in total on either plan. PDF, JPEG, PNG and WebP files are supported, and photos are shrunk automatically so the email still lands. Attachments do not use up your monthly send allowance.

Yes, on every plan. Switch on card payments in Settings and your invoices include a secure Pay now button. Payments settle to your own Stripe account and invoices are marked paid automatically. Until the 1 October 2026 monthly reset, Stripe processing fees apply plus a platform fee of 1.15% on Starter, 0.65% on Pro or 0.25% on Pro+ (minimum A$0.25, plus GST where applicable). From that reset, Free Invoice App adds no platform transaction fee. Showing bank-transfer details on your invoices remains free. Starter includes 7 sends per month, Pro 250 and Pro+ unlimited. Until the 1 October 2026 monthly reset, invoices sent with an available card payment option are exempt. From that reset, they count too. Each CC recipient and manual reminder also uses a send. Allowances reset on the first of each month at 00:00 UTC.

Yes. The AI Expense Scanner is included on every plan: photograph a receipt with your phone and the amount, GST, date, merchant and category are read automatically, with the photo saved as proof. Starter includes 3 scans a month, Pro 30 and Pro+ 100. It runs in your browser - no app install needed - and works best on your phone so you can use the camera directly.

No. Free Invoice App runs in any modern web browser and is built mobile-first, so it works on a phone as well as a laptop - useful for tradies invoicing from the job site. You can add it to your phone home screen and it opens like an app, with nothing to download and nothing to update. Native Android and iOS apps are in development.
