Design fees and furnishings
Interior design invoicing software
Interior design invoicing software for residential and commercial studios. The design fee, the sofa and rug you source at your markup, and the deposit that places the order all reach the client, while vendor costs stay on the project so your margin is clear.

Example with sample data
Deposits before you order
Send the furniture proposal for the client's e-signature, with a deposit large enough to place the orders. Each piece is approved in writing before you commit to a vendor.
Estimates and e-signaturesFurnishings at your price
Each piece is a line at your client price, with the vendor's cost logged as a project expense. The client sees one clear number per item, and you see the margin.
InvoicingHourly design time
Designers log shopping trips, site visits and drafting on the project. Bill it hourly, or keep the hours to see whether the flat fee covered the work.
Time trackingCommercial projects and ACH
A hotel lobby or an office refresh can be paid by ACH, where Stripe stops charging at $5, and the property's accounts team gets a copy of every bill.
