What NZ freelancers are saying
Real feedback from sole traders who rely on Invio to keep their invoicing simple and their payments on time.
“Invio’s been a great fit for my freelance business. Simple to use, does exactly what I need, and without any bloat. The free tier covered me perfectly until I outgrew it, and Pro’s been worth every dollar since. Product feedback is well received and the founder is responsive and genuine. I strongly recommend using Invio.”

“I’d been looking for so long for exactly this invoicing system. I suggested a feature and it was built within days - the responsiveness is brilliant.”
