What does invoicing software for self-employed people do?
It turns independent work into a clear client invoice, keeps reusable client details together and shows what is still due. Experi focuses on the invoice workflow; it does not replace complete bookkeeping, Self Assessment work or direct tax submissions.

Self-employed invoicing software questions
What does self-employed invoicing software do?
It helps you create and keep client invoices, reuse client details, see what is still due and follow up when needed. Experi focuses on that invoice workflow; it is not a complete bookkeeping package or direct tax-filing service.
Can I create a self-employed invoice without an account?
Yes. Use Experi's browser invoice editor to enter your own details, review the invoice and download or print it without creating an account. Create an account when you want to save clients and invoices or track payment status.
What should a self-employed invoice include?
Include a unique invoice number, your business and contact details, the customer's name and address, a clear description, the supply and invoice dates, the amounts charged, VAT where applicable, the total due and clear payment terms. Your business structure can add requirements: for example, a sole trader using a business name must include their own name and an address for legal documents.
Is an invoice the same as a receipt?
No. An invoice requests payment and records what is being charged; a receipt acknowledges that payment has been received. Record the payment against the saved invoice when it arrives so its status remains clear.
Is self-employed the same as sole trader?
Self-employed describes working for yourself and taking responsibility for the business. Sole trader is one business structure; partners in a business partnership can also be self-employed. If you operate as a sole trader, use Experi's dedicated sole-trader page and current GOV.UK guidance for the structure-specific invoice details.
Does Experi submit Self Assessment or MTD updates?
No. Experi can keep invoice and payment records and provide exports, but it does not replace complete bookkeeping, Self Assessment work or direct Making Tax Digital submissions. Use an accountant or compatible accounting software for those tasks.
Which self-employed invoicing features require Pro?
Free includes five invoices and five quotes as lifetime totals, up to three clients and three manual reminders. Pro is £9 per month after the 14-day trial and adds unlimited invoices and clients, recurring invoices, scheduled reminders, time and expense tracking, projects and custom branding.
