Key Features List
Effective UI/UX
The app features an easy-to-use and straightforward UI/UX, which can easily be understood by individuals & small and medium scale businesses.
Type of Invoice
The app allows a user to create two types of invoices: tax invoice & retail invoice.
Quick Invoice/ Estimate Generation
It is the core feature of the app. Using this feature, the app will automatically generate a quick invoice/ estimate as per the user’s request.
Instantly Send Invoice to the Customers
After generating the invoice, the app allows a user to share it with the customers instantly via email or other platforms such as Facebook, WhatsApp, etc.
Printable Invoices
The app allows a user to generate an unlimited number of invoices in PDF format using a free invoice template anytime and anywhere.
Convert Estimate to Invoice
The app allows a user to convert the estimate to invoice as soon as it gets approved by the customer.
Store Invoices & Estimates on Cloud
The most fantastic feature of Invoice Maker is that it allows users to save their generated invoices and estimates on the cloud.
Smart Item Box
There is an item box integrated into the app to provide smart autosuggestions to the users of the app based on the previous entries stored on the app.
The item box allows a user to add Goods/ Services details. If a user chooses goods, then he/she can further enter details like Quantity, Description, Price, and Tax per item. It calculates the invoice payment, paid amount, and due amount automatically.
Brand Information
The app allows a user to include their logo, company name, and contact details in the invoice to represent their business as a brand.
Taxation made easy
The app enables a user to set custom tax and tax rates as per requirement.
Customers List
The app also consists of a feature where the user can check the list of customers to which they have sent Invoice/ Estimate.
Chat Support
If there is a mistake in the amount of generated invoice or there is an error in generating the invoice, then the user can contact the owner for support.
Multiple Currency Support
The app provides support for multiple currencies; hence, a user can create an estimate/ invoice in any currency they want.
Check Payment Status
Generally, an invoice consists of two options: paid and unpaid. But, there are times when a customer wants to pay the amount in installments, so it is not very easy for a user to save payment details about the customer.
To resolve this, we found an innovative idea where bills can be marked partially paid and integrated it into the app. Hence, the user possesses an option to mark invoices in three ways: paid/ unpaid and partially paid.
Subscription Plans
The app is available for free for the first six months. After this, it comes with two subscription plans: monthly & annual.
