FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What should a freelance invoice include?

Your name or business and contact details, the client's details, a unique invoice number, the date, the work with prices, the total, the due date and how to pay you.

What payment terms are normal for freelancers?

Payment within 14 or 30 days is common. Shorter terms, or a deposit up front for larger projects, help with cash flow. Always put the due date on the invoice.

Should freelancers charge per hour or per project?

Hourly billing suits work where the scope changes. Project fees suit clear deliverables and reward working efficiently. Many freelancers combine the two, with extra hours billed separately.
