Features
Built around how you actually work
Automatic payment reminders that chase for you
Late payers are the worst part of working for yourself. Switch on reminders and Invoice4You sends up to three polite, well-timed chase emails on your behalf — and tells you the moment each one goes out. You stay polite; we stay persistent.
Quotes that turn into invoices in one click
Send a professional quote, get the nod, convert it to an invoice without retyping a thing.
Sole trader and Ltd company in one account
Run your side business and your limited company side by side. Separate company profiles, separate invoice numbering, separate clients — one login.
Track expenses with receipt capture
Snap or upload receipts, log expenses against the right company, and keep everything in one place for your accountant.
Built for the UK
GBP by default. VAT and UTR fields where UK invoices need them. Payment terms that match how British small businesses actually work.

Never sold, never profiled
No advertising, no profiling, and we never sell your data. No tracking SDKs in the app, and no tracking pixels in the emails your clients receive.
Take it with you
Download all your data from your profile at any time, or export your records as a CSV file for your accountant.
Delete means deleted
Close your account from inside the app and your data is removed immediately and permanently, with no grace period. Our host's routine encrypted backups roll off shortly after.
Two-factor sign-in
Add a code from an authenticator app on top of your password, so a leaked password alone can’t open your books.

FAQ
Common questions
Is Invoice4You really free?
Yes. Invoice4You is completely free while in early access — no card details, no invoice caps, no locked features. If paid plans arrive later, early-access users will be told clearly in advance, and no one will ever be charged automatically.
Do I need to download an app?
No, it's your choice. Invoice4You is on the App Store and Google Play, and it also runs in your browser at app.invoice4you.app. It's the same account everywhere, so you can start on your laptop and pick up on your phone.
How do I invoice as a sole trader in the UK?
Include your name and business name, your address, a unique invoice number, the date, a clear description of the work, the amount due, and your payment terms. Invoice4You puts all of these fields in front of you so nothing gets missed.
What must a UK sole trader invoice include?
At minimum: your identity and address, a unique sequential invoice number, invoice date, description of goods or services, and the amount. VAT details are only needed if you're VAT registered. Every Invoice4You invoice includes these automatically.
Can I send invoices if I'm not a registered company?
Yes. Sole traders and freelancers can invoice under their own name without forming a company. Invoice4You supports sole trader, self-employed and limited company profiles — pick the one that matches how you work.
Should I put my UTR number on my invoices?
It's not legally required, but some clients and agencies ask for it. Invoice4You lets you store your UTR against your business profile so it's there when you need it — and off the invoice when you don't.
Do I charge VAT if I'm not VAT registered?
No — you only charge VAT once you're VAT registered. If you are, Invoice4You handles VAT lines on your invoices; if you're not, your invoices simply leave it off.
How do I chase an unpaid invoice?
Politely, promptly, and in writing. Or let Invoice4You do it: switch on automatic reminders and up to three professionally-worded chase emails go out on schedule, so the awkward conversation never has to be yours.
What's the difference between a quote and an invoice?
A quote proposes a price before the work; an invoice requests payment after it. In Invoice4You, an accepted quote becomes an invoice in one click — same details, no retyping.
Can I run a sole trader business and a Ltd company in one account?
Yes — that's one of the things Invoice4You was built for. Separate company profiles keep invoicing, numbering, clients and expenses cleanly apart, under one login.
Can I request a feature?
Yes, please do — during early access your feedback carries the most weight. Request a feature and tell us what would make Invoice4You work better for you. We read every submission.
