Invoice generator for freelancers and sole traders
Create a PDF invoice, save it straight to Income and mark it paid when the money arrives. Keep your sales invoices and expenses together for your next accountant handover.
10 documents total in the free sample · No card or expiry
Create a PDF invoice in your workspace
Choose Create invoice in the workspace sidebar. Add your business and customer details, an invoice number, issue and due dates, and the service or supply date. Enter your items, quantities and prices, with tax and payment instructions when needed.
FigureLane calculates the totals and saves the invoice PDF in Documents → Income as unpaid. Download it and send it to your customer. The PDF includes your details, the customer, itemised charges, dates and total.
Keep track of paid and unpaid invoices
Use the Paid tick in Income when payment arrives. Switch it back to unpaid if you need to correct the status. This is a manual payment record; FigureLane does not send invoices or collect payments.
Created invoices stay out of income totals until marked paid. Reports use the invoice date, and review approval is separate from payment. Issued details stay consistent with the saved PDF.
Bring invoices and expenses into your accountant report
Upload your business expenses alongside your sales invoices. Check the originals, categories and business use, then choose your dates in Reports and download an Excel workbook or PDF report.
Download a complete ZIP pack when your accountant needs the originals too. Your generated invoice PDFs stay with the rest of your private business paperwork.
Try invoice creation with the free sample
Create an account and verify your email to start with 10 document uploads total, shared across your workspace. The sample has no card requirement or expiry. Each generated invoice uses one document from that allowance and no document-reading units.
Choose a paid plan for ongoing paperwork after your sample allowance is used.
Common questions
Is the invoice generator free?
Invoice creation is included in the free sample. The sample has 10 documents total across your workspace, including uploads and generated invoices, with no card requirement or expiry. Each generated invoice uses one document and no processing units. Paid plans provide ongoing monthly allowances.
Can I add tax and payment instructions?
Yes. Add your tax registration number if needed, choose a tax label and rate, and enter payment instructions. FigureLane calculates the invoice totals from your items and tax rate.
Does creating an invoice automatically count it as income?
No. Created invoices are saved in Income as unpaid and stay out of report totals until you mark them paid. Reports use the invoice issue date, rather than a separate payment date.
Can I change an invoice after creating it?
Check the customer, dates, items and totals before creating the PDF. Saved invoice contents are fixed so the record agrees with the PDF. You can still change the paid status, category, business use, review note and approval.
