For freelancers
Send the invoice.
Get paid.
Move on.
You bill clients project by project. You want the invoice to take two minutes, the payment to land without a follow-up call, and the system to grow with you when you're ready.

You already are a business
You don't need to act like one.
You already are one.
Your invoices, payment pages, reminders, and receipts all carry the same structure and polish that clients expect from larger businesses. From the first send, you look established.
No more undercharging because it feels awkward to send a polished invoice. No more delaying reminders because they feel pushy. Wrenbase handles the appearance. You handle the work.

Common questions
The things you actually Google.
Question
How do I look professional without paying for accounting software?
Your invoice carries your logo and (on paid plans) your colors. The payment page is hosted by Wrenbase, but it carries your brand, not ours. Clients pay on a page that looks like yours.

Question
How will I take card payments without setting up a merchant account?
You won't need one. Stripe payments are on the way: connect an account in a couple of minutes and every invoice will carry a button for card, ACH, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. For now, send invoices and record each one paid by whatever method your client used.

Question
How do I chase payment without sounding pushy?
Wrenbase handles the follow-up so you don't have to. Friendly before the due date, firmer after. Tone you choose, words you can edit. To clients, the reminders read like a professional billing system, not a freelancer asking for money.

PaidQuestion
What if I only send a few invoices a month?
Wrenbase has a Free plan that fits low-volume work. You don't pay a subscription just to send four invoices. Stripe's standard processing fee applies when a client pays by card. That's it.
