Chargify is a feature-rich subscription-based invoicing platform for SMBs (small-to-medium businesses), allowing you to automatically send invoices individually, or on recurring basis. Handy tools and features include creating an order page for customers to sign up for your product, or service, and from which they can then manage their own subscription. Thanks to the apps reporting and analytics functions, users can easily access data including website activity, signup success/failure, expiring credit cards, upgrades and opt-outs. What’s more, Chargify integrates with over 300 apps via a third-party integration service called Zapier. This lets you automatically synchronize your customers and transactions with services from the likes of Basecamp, Base CRM, BigCommerce, Evernote, Freshbooks, Mailchimp, Nimble, Quickbooks, SugarCRM, Trello, and Zoho CRM. With four price-plans to choose from, Chargify starts at just $65/month, rising to $459/month for businesses with 2,000+ customers.
