The 8 BooksBat invoice designs side by side

An invoice that looks as good as your work

Your invoice is part of your brand. A clean, well organized invoice tells a client you are professional and makes it easy for them to see what they owe and how to pay. A messy one invites questions and delays.

BooksBat gives you 8 professional designs: Classic, Modern, Minimal, Elegant, Bold, Compact, Corporate and Creative. Each one uses your logo and brand color, lays out line items, taxes and totals clearly, and works the same for invoices and quotes. Switch designs at any time and every document updates. When you want a head start on the content too, the template library has ready made invoices and quotes for many industries.

The template library

Templates give you a starting point with typical line items, units and notes for your kind of work. Open one, change the details and send. The library at /templates/ is organized by industry and includes:

  • Freelance design invoice
  • Consulting hours invoice
  • Construction estimate
  • Cleaning service invoice
  • Photography package
  • Web development retainer
  • Rental invoice
  • Catering quote
  • Tutoring invoice
  • IT support invoice

And more. Every template works with every design, so you can combine the content you need with the look you like.

What every design includes

  • Your logo, business name, address and tax or VAT id.
  • Your client's details and the invoice or quote number, date and due date.
  • Line items with quantity, unit, unit price, discounts and taxes, including compound tax.
  • Clear subtotals, discounts, shipping, tax totals and the amount due, in any currency.
  • Your notes, terms and, when no payment provider is connected, your bank transfer details.
  • On the free plan, a small BooksBat mark. Pro removes it for $4 a month.

Custom templates on Pro and Business

The 8 built in designs are on every plan. On Pro you can go further and create custom invoice templates in the template editor, and the BooksBat note on invoices is removed. On Business you can write templates in HTML and CSS for complete control over the layout, which suits agencies and businesses with strict brand guidelines.

Whatever the design, the numbers underneath are the same: each invoice posts to your books in BooksBat, so changing how an invoice looks never changes your accounts.
