Mintvo vs Invoice Ninja
Last checked: · Invoice Ninja pricing
Pick Invoice Ninja if you want to self-host, connect one of dozens of payment gateways, or need expenses, time tracking and a client portal. Pick Mintvo if you want a smaller app with fewer settings, pay buttons for the accounts you already have, and a home screen that shows what you've earned.

Where Invoice Ninja is better
- You can host it yourself; the code is on GitHub.
- The widest choice of payment gateways, with auto-billing.
- A client portal, plus expenses and time tracking.
Where Mintvo is different
- Clients pay with the PayPal, Wise, Payoneer, Stripe or bank details you already use. Mintvo never holds the money and takes no cut, so it works wherever those services work.
- The home screen is your earnings: this month, this year and what's still owed, in your currency, converted at the rate on the day each invoice was paid.
- You see when a client opens the invoice and when they open your payment link or copy your details.
- Quotes your client accepts online, then one click to a draft invoice.
- It's small on purpose. There's no chart of accounts or bank feed to set up before your first invoice.
