For web developers
Ship the site. Bill the maintenance on autopilot.
For web developers, agencies of one and IT consultants: bill the build by the hour or by estimate, then let hosting and maintenance invoices go out every month on their own.
From build to recurring revenue
- Scope it. Send an estimate the client approves online, or bill the build by the hour with the timer.
- Launch and invoice. Turn the estimate or the tracked hours into an invoice in a few clicks.
- Set up the retainer. A recurring invoice for hosting, maintenance or support goes out monthly, quarterly or yearly, on its own.
- Get paid without chasing. Clients pay by card through your Stripe account, and reminders follow up on late ones.
Made for how developers bill
- Support hours on top. Track out-of-scope requests as they come in and add them to the next invoice.
- Clients anywhere. Invoice in your client's currency; card payments work in USD, CAD, EUR, GBP and AUD.
- Pass-through costs. Bill domains, plugins and licenses as expenses on the invoice.
- Due dates on your calendar. Invoice due dates sync to Google Calendar and update as clients pay.
- No fees on payments. Card payments go to your own Stripe account; BillGrid adds nothing to Stripe's rate.
Not the right fit if
You need an API, webhooks or a Zapier integration to wire invoicing into your own systems: BillGrid has none today. There's also no automatic card charging for recurring invoices, so clients pay each one from its link.
Questions developers ask
Can hosting invoices go out without me?
Yes. Turn on automatic sending and each recurring invoice is emailed the day it's created, with reminders if it isn't paid.
Can I bill a fixed fee plus extra hours?
Yes. Keep the fixed retainer as a recurring invoice and add tracked hours to a separate invoice, or add them as lines before you send.
What does it cost?
$8 a month for unlimited clients, invoices and recurring invoices. Free for 30 days, no card needed.
