Invoicing for Consultants

Bill your clients like the professional you are — and get paid on time.

Send a clean, branded consulting invoice with a payment link in under a minute. Bill hourly, by milestone, or on retainer. Your client pays by card; you move on to the work that matters.

Free — no monthly fee. 3% + $0.30 when they pay. Add accounting ($25/mo) and every paid invoice is already in your books — same event, nothing to reconcile.

Free business checking · 1.75% APY · FDIC insured to $3M

Retainers, milestones, hourly — invoice the way you actually bill.

Consulting income doesn’t fit one mold. Some clients pay a monthly retainer, some pay per milestone, some pay for tracked hours. Holdings’ invoice builder handles all three: add line items for deliverables, set quantities and rates, apply a retainer credit, and send.

Every invoice carries a payment link, so clients pay by card the moment they approve — no “check is in the mail,” no 30-day float.

  • Hourly

    Bill tracked time at your rate with line-item detail.

  • Milestone

    Invoice on delivery — discovery, draft, final — each as its own line.

  • Retainer

    Send a recurring monthly invoice and apply credits against scope.

Get paid faster, look more credible.

A branded invoice with a one-click payment link gets paid faster than a Word doc and a bank-transfer request. Add your logo and brand color (with the $25/mo Software plan) so every touchpoint looks like the premium service you sell.

Banking and unlimited invoicing are free. When you want your books to run themselves — every paid invoice already in your books, expenses categorized for you, P&L always current — add accounting for $25/mo.

Questions

Straight answers.

Is the consultant invoice generator really free?
Yes. Creating and sending invoices is free with Holdings — no monthly fee. You only pay 3% + $0.30 when a client pays by card, the same as any card processor. Full accounting (auto-reconciliation, P&L, reports) is the $25/mo Software plan.
Can I send a retainer or recurring invoice?
Recurring invoices and automatic overdue reminders are part of the $25/mo Software plan. On the free plan you can send unlimited one-off invoices with payment links.
How do my clients pay?
Each invoice includes a secure payment link. Clients pay by card in a couple of clicks — no account required on their end. Funds land in your free Holdings business checking.
Do I need a Holdings bank account to send invoices?
No — you can use the free invoice generator without an account. But opening a free Holdings account means payments land directly in your checking and you can connect accounting when you’re ready.
