Comparison

Toolbelt vs Invoice2go

Toolbelt vs Invoice2go for contractors: plan limits, card fees, what each does well, and the pricing they don't show you until you pick a currency.

How we write these. Every comparison page on this site names what the other product does better, in its own section, first. Not as a courtesy — because a comparison page where the competitor loses every round is a page no one believes, and because you are going to find out anyway the moment you download the thing. Prices are taken from the competitor's own pricing page and stamped with the date we checked them.

What Invoice2go does better than Toolbelt

Android and web

Again: Toolbelt is iPhone-only. Invoice2go is not.

Payments and card processing built in

Card payment acceptance is baked into the plans, with the fee dropping as you move up the tiers.

Accounting integrations

QuickBooks and Xero sync on the middle tier up.

What Toolbelt does better than Invoice2go

No annual invoice cap

Read the Invoice2go tiers again: 30 invoices a year on Starter, 100 on Professional. Thirty invoices is under three a month. Most working contractors will blow through that and get pushed up a tier. Toolbelt's paid plan has no cap at all.

A price you can see without a sales funnel

$14.99/mo, $99.99/yr, on the page, in public.

Voice, AI descriptions, offline

Speak the line item, let the app write it properly, and do it all with no signal. Invoice2go has none of these.

Built for trades specifically

Not a general-purpose invoice tool with a contractor template bolted on.

Invoice2go pricing

We are not going to print a price for Invoice2go, and here is why.

Invoice2go does not show a price on its pricing page until you select a currency, so we cannot quote you a verified figure here. What we can tell you is the shape of the plans, which is the part that actually catches people out: the tiers are limited by how many invoices you send per YEAR.

Check it yourself: Invoice2go pricing. We would rather send you to the source than publish a number we cannot stand behind — a comparison page with a wrong price in it is worth less than no comparison page at all.

Platforms: iPhone only. Invoice2go runs on iOS, Android, web. That is a real gap and it is the first thing on this page you should weigh — if you are on Android, this decision is already made for you.

What neither of us does well

Worth saying plainly, because every comparison page on the internet pretends its two subjects cover the whole world between them. Neither Toolbelt nor Invoice2go is a substitute for an accountant. Neither will chase a customer who has decided not to pay you. And neither one fixes a pricing problem — if your rates are too low, better invoices will just help you go broke more efficiently. If that is the real issue, start with our hourly rate calculator instead of either app.

Should you switch — and how?

The thing that pushes people off Invoice2go is the annual invoice cap. Thirty invoices a year on the entry tier is fewer than three a month — a slow month for most trades — and one hundred on the tier above it is still a ceiling you can see from where you are standing. Getting metered on the core action of your business is an unpleasant way to run it.

If you switch, nothing needs migrating. Your history is in your email and your bank statements. Rebuild your standard line items in Toolbelt — ten minutes — and run the next job through it. The free tier gives you three documents a month indefinitely, which is enough to test it properly on real jobs before you pay anyone anything.

The honest verdict

Invoice2go if you need Android, web, or integrated card processing. Toolbelt if you send more than a couple of invoices a month and would rather not be metered by the year.

Common questions

Is Toolbelt cheaper than Invoice2go?

Toolbelt is $14.99/month or $99.99/year for everything, with a free tier of 3 documents a month. We could not verify Invoice2go's current pricing from their own site, so we are not going to claim we are cheaper without checking. Their pricing page is linked above.

Can I use Toolbelt if I'm on Android?

No. Toolbelt is iPhone only. If your phone is an Android, Invoice2go covers you and we do not — that is the end of the decision, and no feature table changes it.

Does Invoice2go have voice input or AI descriptions?

Not as of 2026-07-12, based on their published feature set. This is the clearest functional difference between the two products: with Toolbelt you speak the work and it gets written up as line items.

Do I have to migrate my old invoices?

No, and you generally should not bother trying. Invoices you have already sent live in your email, your accounting and your customers' inboxes — they are valid documents wherever the app that made them ends up. Set up your business details and your common line items, and start with your next job.
