About FreshBooks
FreshBooks is purpose-built for service-based businesses — consultants, agencies, lawyers, contractors, and freelancers who bill by the hour or by project. Its time tracking, project management, and invoicing tools are more deeply integrated than any other accounting platform. FreshBooks automatically imports tracked time into invoices, making billing a one-click process. Its double-entry accounting satisfies CPA requirements while remaining simple enough for non-accountants to use daily. The affiliate program pays up to $200 per paying referral.
