# The best invoice apps in 2026, honestly compared.

By Roy van Oeteren, founder · Updated October 10, 2026

We make Jiffy, and Jiffy is on this list. So we kept it checkable: every fact about another app comes from its own website, every app links to a full side-by-side comparison, and for each one we say who it suits best, including where it beats Jiffy.

## How we made this list

A list written by one of the apps on it should be easy to check. Here is how we did it.

- **The apps.** The 10 invoice apps we already compare Jiffy with on our comparison pages, plus Jiffy itself. Well-known names for freelancers and small businesses.
- **The same points for each.** Free plan, where it runs, quotes your client signs, card payments, reminders, recurring invoices, languages, invoicing by voice and bookkeeping.
- **Facts from their own site.** Every fact about another app comes from its own website, checked October 10, 2026. If the site does not say, we write “Not listed”, never a guess.
- **No prices, no stars.** Prices change, so we link to each pricing page instead. We give no scores or ratings: Jiffy comes first because it is ours, the rest are not ranked.

## 11 invoice apps side by side

Jiffy’s column is our own app as it is today. Everything else is from each app’s own site, checked October 10, 2026.
