Built for your reality
"Used to spend 2 hours every Sunday doing invoices. Now I do it on my phone before I leave the driveway. My clients get it before I'm back on the highway."
HVAC Tech
Calgary, AB
"The GST auto-calculation alone is worth it. I used to double-check everything by hand because I didn't trust myself to get it right. Now I just trust the app."
Electrician
Ottawa, ON
"Clients actually pay faster now. The QR code makes it dead simple — they scan it on their phone while I'm still packing up. No more chasing payments a week later."

FAQ
Do my clients need to create an account to pay?
No. They get a link or QR code. They open it, they pay. No signups, no passwords, no app downloads.
Is GST/HST actually handled automatically?
Yes. NimBill knows every provincial rate. Pick your province in settings once, and every invoice is correct from day one. Your totals are always CRA-ready.
What's the difference between NimBill and QuickBooks?
QuickBooks is an accountant's tool bolted onto Canada as an afterthought. NimBill is built from the ground up for Canadian trades — simpler, faster, and a fraction of the price.
Can I use NimBill on my phone on the job site?
That's exactly what it's built for. Invoices, quotes, work orders, and receipt scanning — all from your phone while you're still on site.
