Review
“Hard to beat for genuinely free core accounting and invoicing.”
Wave's core accounting and invoicing tools are free, monetized instead through payment processing and payroll add-ons.
Customer support is lighter than paid competitors, which is a reasonable trade-off given the free core product.
