## ShipRadar verdict

Start here for invoices if you are one person and US/Canada-based. Free covers unlimited invoices; pay Pro when chasing bank sync, not before.

- Best for: Freelancers and tiny service businesses that need free invoices and basic books.
- Not great for: Shops with inventory, or anyone who needs automatic bank sync without paying.
- Watch out: Auto bank import and late-payment reminders sit on Pro ($19 a month), not Free.
