About this template
Startup is the SaaS and indie-maker template: logo-forward with a soft gradient band so the invoice feels like the rest of your product, not a legal form.
Style: Startup. Best fit for SaaS work when you need a print-ready PDF that matches the live preview above.

Who it suits
- Early-stage startups
- Indie makers
- Subscription tools
Real billing scenario
An indie SaaS founder invoices an agency partner for monthly white-label seats. Soft branding keeps the invoice on-brand with the product UI.
Example line items
- White-label seats × 25
- Priority support add-on
- Onboarding call
Fields worth including
- Billing period
- Seat count
- Cancellation / prorate note
Common mistakes with this layout
- Missing the service period so renewals look like duplicate charges
- No tax ID when selling cross-border into VAT regions
Friendly invoices for product companies
Startup is for early-stage companies, indie makers and subscription tools that want the invoice to feel like the rest of the product: logo-forward, soft gradient band, approachable rather than legalistic. Investors and first customers still need correct totals. Startup simply presents them without stiff corporate styling.
Layout details
- Stacked, brand-forward header with space for a recognisable mark.
- Soft accent band that reads well on screen.
- Open item table for plan names and add-ons.
- Totals that stay obvious for finance teammates joining later.
Typical billing scenarios
Monthly SaaS plans, onboarding packages, usage overages, and founding-customer discounts. List the plan name and seat count explicitly; “Pro plan” alone causes upgrade disputes.
Filling tips
Show the billing period on every recurring line. If you offer annual prepay with a discount, show list price and discount as separate lines for clean books. Add your support email in notes so customers do not reply-all to a no-reply mailbox.
When to pick something else
Choose Dark or Mono for a more technical look. Choose Corporate once you sell into enterprises with strict AP portals. Choose Ocean for multi-phase consulting sold alongside the product.
