FreshBooks offers three self-serve monthly plans — Lite, Plus, and Premium — currently 90% off for the first 3 months ($2.30–$7.00/month), then $23–$70/month. A custom-priced Select plan is available for high-volume billing businesses, and every plan starts with a 30-day free trial.
FreshBooks costs between $2.30 and $70 per month right now, with three self-serve plans: Lite at $2.30/month (regularly $23), Plus at $4.30/month (regularly $43), and Premium at $7/month (regularly $70), plus a custom-priced Select plan.
Those low rates come from a limited-time offer of 90% off your first 3 months. After that, standard monthly pricing applies. Here's how each plan breaks down.
Lite
Price: $2.30/month for the first 3 months, then $23.00/month
Best For: freelancers and solo business owners with a short client list
Refund Policy: 30-day money-back guarantee
Other Features:
- 5 billable clients
- Automated recurring invoices
- Optional add-ons ($20/mo, $11/mo, and $40/mo plus $6/mo per user)
Lite is the simple starting point. It handles invoicing for a handful of clients without making you pay for extras you won't touch. If you're just getting organized, this plan covers the basics at the lowest cost.
Plus
Price: $4.30/month for the first 3 months, then $43.00/month
Best For: growing businesses with a longer client roster
Other Features:
- 50 billable clients
- Email receipts right to your account
- Automated recurring invoices
- Optional add-ons available
Plus gives you ten times the client capacity and sends email receipts straight to your account. If you're landing new clients regularly, that extra headroom matters. Many small teams find this is the sweet spot.
Premium
Price: $7.00/month for the first 3 months, then $70.00/month
Best For: established businesses that don't want client limits
Other Features:
- Unlimited billable clients
- Email receipts right to your account
- Automated recurring invoices
- Same add-ons available
Premium removes the client cap entirely, so you never have to think about upgrading again. Skip it if you're early-stage — the smaller plans will save you money while you grow.
Select
Best For: high-volume billing businesses with bigger needs
Other Features:
- Unlimited billable clients
- The $20/mo add-on included at no extra cost
- Additional add-ons available ($11/mo; $40/mo plus $6/mo per user)
Select is FreshBooks' custom plan for high-volume billing, and its price isn't listed on the page — reach out to the company for a quote before committing. Everyone else can stick with the three self-serve options above.
Every plan starts with a 30-day free trial, so you can try before you buy. FreshBooks also backs purchases with a 30-day money-back guarantee: if you're not satisfied, contact them within the first 30 days after purchase for a full refund. Just remember the 90% discount only lasts 3 months — after that, standard monthly rates apply to whichever plan you choose.
