Wave

Small-business accounting and invoicing software with a free Starter plan and a Pro plan for bank connections and automatic reminders.

ToolScout view

Wave lets a freelancer or very small business start bookkeeping and invoicing on a free Starter plan. The manufacturer documents branded invoice templates, a Pay now button for card or bank payments, estimates with deposits and basic bookkeeping reports. Connecting bank accounts so transactions appear automatically, and sending automatic overdue reminders, need the Pro Plan. The trade-off is depth: growing firms should check reporting, integrations and multi-user needs early.

Before you choose: Create an estimate and an invoice on the free plan, then decide whether automatic bank imports and reminders justify moving to Pro.
