Our Honest Take

PayPal Invoicing is the path of least resistance — your clients probably already have PayPal accounts. But convenience comes at a cost: 2.99% + $0.49 per transaction. On a $3,000 project, that is $90.21 gone. Plus, your invoices carry PayPal's branding instead of yours, and customization options are minimal. InvoiceBlitz lets you create branded, professional invoices and include your preferred payment method — whether that is bank transfer, PayPal, Wise, or any other service. You control the payment experience.
