Quick answers to help you decide
Is Rebill really free to start?
Yes! Our free plan allows up to 10 invoices per month, 5 clients, and basic features. You can upgrade to Premium (R99/month) anytime for unlimited invoices, recurring billing, payment integration, and customizable reminders.
How do payment integrations work?
Connect your Paystack, Yoco, or PayFast account in settings. Your invoices will automatically include a "Pay Now" button. When clients click it, they can pay instantly with their card. The money goes directly to your payment provider account. Note: Payment providers charge their own transaction fees — check Paystack, Yoco, or PayFast for their current rates.
What about WhatsApp credits?
Premium subscribers get 20 free WhatsApp messages per month. Additional messages cost just 30c each, purchased in bundles from 50 to 1,000 credits.
Is my data safe and secure?
Absolutely. We use Google Cloud Platform for secure data storage with enterprise-grade encryption. All payment processing happens through PCI-compliant providers (Paystack, Yoco, PayFast). We never see or store your clients' card details.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes, you can cancel your premium subscription anytime from your account settings. Your data remains accessible, but you'll revert to free plan limits. No long-term contracts or cancellation fees.
Do you offer support?
Yes! Join our Discord community for quick help, feature suggestions, and to connect with other Rebill users. We also provide email support at hello@rebill.co.za. Premium subscribers get priority support with faster response times.
What business reports are available?
Rebill includes three key reports: Revenue Reports showing your income by month, quarter, or year with visual charts; Outstanding/Aging Reports tracking unpaid invoices by how long they've been overdue (30, 60, 90+ days); and Client Revenue Reports showing which clients generate the most revenue. All reports can be exported to CSV for your accountant or tax submissions.
What makes Rebill different from other invoicing software?
Rebill is built specifically for South African small businesses. We handle VAT compliance, integrate with local payment providers (Paystack, Yoco & PayFast), support ZAR currency, and offer WhatsApp invoice delivery - all in a simple interface designed for entrepreneurs, not accountants.
What are invoice templates?
Invoice templates let you save your most common invoice setups — line items, descriptions, and amounts — so you can reuse them. Instead of building invoices from scratch each time, pick a template, select your client, and you're done. Perfect for freelancers and service providers who invoice for the same types of work regularly.
Can I send quotes and convert them to invoices?
Yes! Create professional quotes for your clients, send them via email, and track when they're accepted or declined. Once a quote is accepted, convert it to an invoice with one click — all the line items are copied over automatically.
Can multiple team members use one account?
Yes! Premium accounts support multiple users with role-based access controls, perfect for small teams and partnerships.
What is the best invoice software for small business in South Africa?
Rebill is designed specifically for South African small businesses and freelancers. Unlike international software, Rebill offers ZAR currency, 15% VAT compliance, integration with local payment providers (Paystack, Yoco, PayFast), and WhatsApp invoice delivery — features that matter most to SA businesses. With a free plan and premium at just R99/month, it's the most affordable professional invoicing solution in the country.
How do I create a VAT invoice in South Africa?
With Rebill, creating a SARS-compliant VAT invoice is simple. Add your VAT registration number in settings, and Rebill automatically calculates 15% VAT on all invoices. Each invoice includes your VAT number, itemized amounts, VAT breakdown, and sequential invoice numbering — everything SARS requires. You can also generate VAT reports for your tax submissions.
Is there free invoicing software in South Africa?
Yes! Rebill offers a completely free plan that includes 10 invoices per month, 5 clients, and 5 quotes — perfect for freelancers and side businesses. Unlike other "free" tools, there's no credit card required and no surprise fees. When you're ready for unlimited invoices, recurring billing, and payment integration, Premium is just R99/month.
Can I use Rebill for freelance invoicing?
Rebill is perfect for freelancers. Send professional invoices in seconds, track what clients owe you, and get paid faster with instant card payments. The free plan works great for freelancers with a few clients, and Premium unlocks recurring invoices for retainer clients and automatic payment reminders so you never have to chase payments.
