Getting started with Billune — send your first invoice in 5 minutes

Billune is designed so a brand-new freelancer can create and send a beautiful, branded invoice on their very first day. Here's exactly how, step by step.

  1. 01

    Sign up (60 seconds)

    From the homepage, click Get started for free in the top right. Sign in with Google or create an account with an email and password. You'll land on the Dashboard immediately — no credit card, no verification email delay.

  2. 02

    Add your business details

    Open Settings from the sidebar. Fill in your business name, contact email, address, and default currency. Anything you enter here appears automatically on every future invoice — you'll never re-type it.

  3. 03

    Set up your first client

    Open Clients+ New client. Enter their name, email, and (optionally) company/address/tax ID. Saved clients are one-click on every invoice from here on.

  4. 04

    Create the invoice

    Click + New Invoice in the sidebar. Pick the client from the dropdown → the snapshot auto-fills. Add one or more line items (description, qty, unit price). Totals recalculate live in the preview on the right.

  5. 05

    Choose a template

    Switch to the Branding tab. Pick one of four templates (Modern, Classic, Minimal, Bold) and set an accent color. The right-side preview updates instantly — no separate 'preview' button.

  6. 06

    Send it

    Back on the Details tab, click Save in the header, then Send by email in the Actions panel. Your client receives a beautifully-designed email with the PDF attached and a Pay button if you've connected a payment gateway.
