For coaching businesses

Invoicing software for coaches selling packages and retainers

Invoice Crowd lets coaches present the engagement in a proposal, share a reusable payment link or schedule recurring invoices, collect payments and keep every client balance visible.

  • Proposal-led packages
  • Reusable payment links
  • Recurring invoice schedules
Invoice Crowd Payment Links screen for a coaching business with package links and how many clients bought each, a new client created by a purchase, the link to share and a monthly coaching recurring invoice schedule

The workflow

A commercial workflow around the coaching offer

From the signed proposal to the monthly invoice, every coaching package is billed from the same account, and each client's balance stays in view.

Explain the engagement

Package, price and terms before payment

The Executive Coaching proposal template in Invoice Crowd filled in for a leadership coaching package, with the package pricing and the client signature

Present the coaching package in a proposal

Describe the package, its price, the payment terms and your conditions, and the client approves and signs it in the browser. Keep private session goals out of the finance document.

  • Clear commercial package description
  • Browser approval and signature
  • Private coaching notes remain separate

Share a fixed offer

A link the client pays online

Invoice Crowd Payment Links list for a coaching business, and the checkout a client sees: email verification with a one-time code, then their details, which creates them as a customer

Create a reusable payment link for a package

Turn a fixed package into a payment link and share it anywhere. The client pays online, becomes a customer automatically and gets an invoice, so there is nothing to set up by hand.

  • One link you can share anywhere
  • The client is added as a customer when they pay
  • Let clients pick a quantity, such as extra sessions

Bill an ongoing engagement

Use a visible schedule for the stable fee

Invoice Crowd recurring invoices for a coaching business with monthly and quarterly coaching package schedules, one paused, and a schedule that ends after six invoices

Schedule recurring invoices for continuing coaching

On a paid plan, put a flat monthly fee on a recurring invoice and see when the next one goes out, with each payment recorded against the client's balance. When the fee buys a set number of hours each month, a retainer counts the hours you log against it and bills any extra on the next invoice.

  • Visible next-send date
  • Hours included each month on a retainer
  • Separate from session booking and notes

Why it fits

Why coaches bill from here

Packages, instalments and monthly plans all end in the same place: an invoice the client can pay online.

  • Proposal, payment link and invoice

    Sell the package in a signed proposal or a payment link, and every payment lands against the client's balance.

  • Each client's history in one record

    Estimates, invoices, payments and the balance for each client, and a portal where they can see them too.

  • Paid by card, bank or PayPal

    Connect Stripe, PayPal, Square or ten others and clients pay from the invoice or the payment link. PayPal works on the free plan too.

  • Clients in other countries

    Invoice an international client in their currency while your reports total in yours.

Also included

The rest of a coaching practice

These sit in the same account as your proposals, payment links and invoices.

  • Instalment plans

    Split a package into a deposit and instalments, each with its own due date, and the client pays each part from the same invoice.

  • Monthly card subscriptions

    Run a monthly coaching plan as a subscription: once the client approves it, their card is charged each month through Stripe, Square or another gateway. Clients can cancel a Stripe or Square subscription from their portal. Paid plans.

  • Refunds

    Refund a payment made on an invoice through Stripe, PayPal and six other gateways, straight from the invoice. This works on one-off invoices, not subscriptions or payment links.

  • Packages paid up front

    A package paid up front is held as an advance with its own receipt, then applied as you invoice the sessions.

  • Reminders and late fees

    Reminders go out before and after the due date. Set a flat or percentage late fee when you send the invoice, and it is added automatically if the invoice is still unpaid after the due date.

  • Client portal

    Clients you invite sign in to see every invoice you sent them, what they have paid and what is still due.

  • Proposal templates

    Start from 40+ proposal templates and keep your terms, method and bio in a content library for the next client.

  • Saved items

    Keep sessions, workshops and assessments as saved items with their prices, then add them to any proposal, estimate or invoice.

  • Compare like with like

    When you compare tools, test each one on the same job: a package, a partial payment and a finite billing schedule.

Questions

Coaching invoices, answered

Can coaches sell packages through Invoice Crowd?

Yes. Describe the package in a proposal the client signs, or sell it from a payment link the client pays online.

Can I create recurring invoices for coaching retainers?

Yes, on a paid plan. A recurring invoice bills a flat monthly fee, and a retainer counts the hours you log against a monthly allowance. Neither books the sessions themselves.

How does Invoice Crowd fit with coaching or scheduling software?

Use Invoice Crowd for proposals, package pricing, payment links, recurring invoices, payments and client balances alongside your preferred scheduling or program-delivery platform.

Should I store coaching notes in Invoice Crowd?

No. Keep confidential session notes and client-progress information in an appropriate, access-controlled system. Finance records only need the commercial detail required to explain the charge.

Can a coaching client make a partial payment?

Yes. Split the package into a deposit and instalments, each with its own due date, or allow partial payments with a minimum amount. The client pays each part from the same invoice.

Can coaching clients see their invoice history?

Yes. Clients you invite to the customer portal can sign in to see every invoice you sent them, what they have paid and what is still due.

Sell the package, collect the instalments

Send the proposal or share the payment link, split the fee into instalments and let reminders follow up on the late ones.
