Create your account and send your first invoice

Sign up, confirm your email, and go from an empty desk to an invoice in three steps.

Signing up takes four short steps, and then the desk itself shows you the way to your first invoice.

Sign up

  1. Go to involets.com/app and press Sign up.
  2. Enter your name, your email address and a password of at least eight characters.
  3. Check your email for an eight-digit code and type it in. The code works for an hour; if it runs out, ask for another from the same screen.
  4. Pick a picture: one of sixteen drawn avatars, or a photo of your own.
  5. Choose the currency you invoice in, and the name and rate of your tax if you charge one. You can change both later in Settings → Invoicing.

From an empty desk to an invoice

A new account opens on the Overview, which lists three steps to your first invoice:

  1. Create a project. Give it a client and decide whether it bills by the hour or at a fixed price. See Create a project.
  2. Track some time. Start the timer, or add hours you have already worked. See Start and stop the timer.
  3. Send an invoice. Tick the hours to bill, review it and download the PDF. See Create an invoice.
Try it before you sign upThe desk at involets.com/app runs on sample data when you are signed out. Open any app from the dock; nothing you do there is saved.
