Understanding Free vs. Pro Tiers

Last updated: 15 May 2026

The Free tier offers local browser storage with unlimited watermarked invoices, while the Pro tier provides cloud syncing, removes watermarks, and adds advanced features like automated follow-ups. Both tiers are designed to be completely capable depending on your specific business and mobility needs.

The Free Tier

  • 100% Client-Side Storage: All your data is saved directly in your web browser using Local Storage. This means it's incredibly fast and private.
  • Unlimited Invoices & Quotes: Create as many documents as you need.
  • Watermarked PDFs: Invoices generated on the free tier include a small "Created with Invoice Buddy" watermark at the bottom.

The Pro Tier

  • Cloud Syncing: Your data is securely backed up to the cloud, allowing you to access your invoices from any device (phone, tablet, or another computer).
  • No Watermarks: Generate clean, professional PDFs without any Invoice Buddy branding.
  • Advanced Features: Access powerful tools designed to simplify your financial management and client relations:
    • Boss Mode (Automated Follow-ups): Stop chasing payments manually. Boss Mode provides proven email templates and timelines to politely but firmly follow up on overdue invoices, saving you time and awkward conversations.
    • Tax Buffer Dashboard: Never get caught short at tax time. This dashboard automatically calculates your GST and income tax obligations based on your earnings, letting you know exactly how much is safe to spend.
    • Advanced Client Insights: View your entire billing history with each client at a glance. Easily spot who your best customers are and immediately flag any outstanding balances, giving you total control over your cash flow.

[!NOTE] You can upgrade to Pro at any time from your dashboard without losing any of your existing local data.
