The short version

  • Only Fakturoid has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Chargebee priced as a percentage of billing, 0.80 percent on pay-as-you-go or 0.65 percent plus $99 a month on the committed plan, so the fee rises with revenue; Fakturoid free Zdarma plan is capped at just 5 clients, though invoices themselves are unlimited
