Invoicing in Conta.es: we answer frequent questions and improve the service together with you

If you have questions, ideas, or you notice that some function is missing, write to us at [email protected]. Every email helps us make Conta.es more convenient and transparent for all users.

Why we pay so much attention to invoicing

For self‑employed professionals and freelancers in Spain, an invoice is not just a document. It is the basis of tax accounting, proof of income, and a tool that affects client trust and payment speed. Therefore, invoicing in Conta.es is one of the key modules around which we constantly collect and implement your suggestions.

New users often ask similar questions: “Can I use Conta.es only for issuing invoices?”, “What limitations does the free version have?”, “What are the ‘first 60 days’?”, “Which functions will no longer be available after the trial period ends?”. In this article we answer these questions in detail and show which features are available in different plans.

Free invoicing for autónomos in Spain

The free invoicing in Conta.es was created as support for autónomos in Spain who need to issue invoices in a convenient and correct way without diving into complex software and accounting terminology. You can create up to 10 invoices per month completely free of charge and without entering your bank card details.

The free invoicing feature allows you to:

  • create up to 10 invoices per month with automatic calculation of IVA and IRPF withholdings;
  • download invoices in PDF format and send them to your clients by email or via a link;
  • work with a client database and a product and services catalog;
  • invite your accountant so that they receive documents directly from the Conta.es system and use them for tax reporting.

This approach allows you to start working with invoices immediately, without financial commitments, and understand whether the system suits you before thinking about switching to a paid plan.

Invoice creation by plan: which features are available

Below is a table with the main features of the invoicing module and their availability in the plans: Free invoices, Basic, Pro, and Premium. We have removed additional technical details and kept what is important for decision‑making: in which plan you can cover your invoicing needs.

The first 60 days are a trial period that starts after you first use any of the system’s features (for example, create an invoice, connect a bank, or try the Payment link). From the moment of activation you have 60 days to use the system and test its capabilities without any restrictions on these features, without entering your bank card and completely free of charge.

After the trial period ends, the free account will have certain limitations: the logo on the invoice will no longer be available, the bank integration and automatic payment tracking will be disabled, and the button in the invoice for quick payment initiation (Payment link and QR code) will also no longer be available. At the same time, you will still be able to issue free invoices within the limit and work with the basic invoicing features.

It is also important to keep in mind that after the trial period ends, you will only be able to open or download a document uploaded to the system if it was created or added no more than 90 days ago. If a document is older than 90 days, the system will offer you to purchase any of the plans in order to gain access to the full archive and remove these limitations.

Invoicing features and their purpose

To make it easier for you to understand how each feature helps in your work, we have prepared a separate table with brief descriptions. It is suitable for those who are just getting acquainted with the system and want to immediately see what exactly can be done in Conta.es when issuing invoices.

Description of invoicing features
Feature Description
Invoice issuance Creation and sending of invoices to clients taking into account all mandatory details and taxes. You can prepare the document in a few minutes and send it to the client immediately.

Multiple billing details in one invoice The ability to specify different legal or payment details in a single document if you work in several formats or with several trade names.
Automatic discount calculation Discounts are applied automatically when calculating the final amount, which reduces the risk of errors and saves time when you frequently use promotions or special offers.
