The official source of news and updates about Envoyce

Envoyce, a refreshingly honest & free UK invoicing software app.

Running a small business or working as a sole trader in the UK often means juggling many roles: doing the job, finding new customers, managing accounts, chasing invoices, and trying to stay on top of tax.

Many invoicing tools promise to make that easier, but often with hidden costs, confusing pricing tiers, or features that are there mainly to upsell. Enter Envoyce, a free UK‑based invoicing app built around clarity, simplicity, and doing the job properly first time without the fuss.

To make it plain and clear here are some of the best benefits of using Envoyce, particularly if you are a freelancer, contractor, sole trader or small business in the UK right now.


1. Genuinely free - no hidden tiers

Perhaps the most striking thing about Envoyce is that it’s truly free in its core offering. There’s no “free plan” that limits you until you upgrade, no required subscriptions, no surprise costs lurking down the line. You can create and send invoices, manage quotations, track customers, all without paying anything.

This matters, especially for small businesses where every cost counts. You can use a robust invoicing tool without worrying about monthly fees or being pressured to switch to a paid version.


2. Designed for UK‑based business needs

Envoyce is tailored to the UK market. This means it supports GBP as the main currency, VAT for HMRC compliance & flexible product handling to account for complex job breakdowns, materials, labour, tax rates etc.

This helps avoid the awkwardness of a using generic international software platform that might overlook UK tax rules or have confusing defaults & settings.


3. Simple, intuitive, tiny learning curve

For many small business owners, the last thing you want is a steep learning curve just to send an invoice. This is Envoyce's strongest hand:

  • “Click‑and‑select” workflow means less time messing with settings, more time issuing invoices & quotes. 

  • Instant preview as you build your invoice or quotation, so you can see exactly what the customer will receive.

  • Works well across desktop, tablet, smartphone; doesn’t require you to install heavy software or navigate tons of menus.

If you’re less tech‑savvy or simply don’t have time to experiment, this ease of use can save you mental load and keep invoicing from becoming a burden. Its actually a bigger deal than you might think.


4. Transparent & honest ethos

Envoyce makes a virtue of being straightforward:

  • No forced upselling. The basic service is usable on its own without needing to buy add‑ons unless you really want extra features. 

  • No ads, no “Pro‑version traps.” The developers are open about what the app does not yet do (e.g. some features still on the roadmap). 

  • Security is taken seriously: data encryption, browser‑based access, etc. 

This transparency builds trust, especially for smaller businesses who often feel squeezed by hidden fees or confusing pricing models from larger software providers.

5. Helps you stay organised & professional

Envoyce isn’t just about creating invoices; it includes features that help with financial visibility and customer management:

  • Tracking unpaid vs paid invoices, seeing overdue items at a glance.

  • Income trend analysis — seeing what you’ve been earning month‑to‑month.

  • Ability to add your own logo, business details, contact information so your invoices look professional. This matters when dealing with clients who expect a certain standard.

Being professional in how you invoice boosts credibility; being organised means you spend less time chasing payments or fixing disputes.


6. Time and cost savings

All of these features combine to help you save both time and money:

  • Less time spent filling out complicated forms or trying to remember what details are required.

  • No subscription fees or extra costs for basic features.

  • Less risk of mistakes (e.g. missing VAT number, forgetting invoice number, unclear payment terms) which can delay payments or cause friction.

For someone doing lots of small jobs, or juggling multiple clients, the cumulative savings can be significant.


7. Especially good for certain types of businesses

Envoyce is great for anyone who wants to create an invoice, but Envoyce is especially useful for:

  • Sole traders and freelancers who issue invoices frequently but don’t have complex accounting needs. 

  • Tradespeople who may be on‑site and need to invoice from a mobile device or van. Being able to issue invoices quickly, with product or materials breakdowns, and track overdue payments is useful. 

  • IT contractors who may invoice regularly, want professionalism, but don’t need a full accounting suite. 


8. Aware of its limits,  and that’s a benefit in itself

Envoyce doesn’t pretend to be everything. It is upfront about what is not yet part of the service, such as built‑in payment links, multi‑currency support, or full bookkeeping export tools. 

Knowing what you won’t get helps you decide whether Envoyce is a good fit, and prevents unpleasant surprises. If you need more advanced features, you might pair Envoyce with another tool, or wait for their add‑ons roadmap.


In a marketplace cluttered with "free trials", “free tiers”, hidden costs, and feature overload, Envoyce offers a refreshing alternative: an invoicing platform built for simplicity, UK compliance, and honesty.

If you are:

  • running a small business,

  • a sole trader wanting things to be neat and professional,

  • someone who doesn’t want to spend hours learning accounting software, or

  • a contractor issuing invoices regularly,

then Envoyce is definitely worth considering. 

It may not replace a full accounting platform (yet), but for many users, it delivers exactly what they need — no more, no less — and that is often precisely what is valuable.

Envoyce is built in Britain for everyone. Cushty!
