Built for Canadian freelancers, by a Canadian freelancer
I understand the unique challenges of getting paid as a Canadian freelancer. That's why I built Paymavo - simple, professional invoicing that just works.
Hi, I'm the founder - I built this because I was tired of chasing late payments and dealing with complex invoicing tools that weren't made for Canadian freelancers.
My Story
Why I created Paymavo
When I wanted to start freelancing, I looked at the existing invoicing tools and realized they weren't adapted to my needs. Most were overly complex "Swiss Army knives" with project management, accounting, and team features - where invoicing was just a small module among many others.
I didn't want to pay for an expensive tool and only use 10% of its features. I just wanted to create invoices and get paid - that's it. No accounting, no project management, no team features, not even quotes. Plus, the pricing was frustrating: Stripe fees on top of platform fees, or "free" tools like Wave with hidden expensive fees and add-ons.
So I built Paymavo. A simple, beautiful invoicing tool that focuses on one thing: getting you paid. No hidden fees beyond standard Stripe processing, with customizable tax rate settings.
No complicated features you don't need. No hidden fees. Just professional invoices that your clients will actually pay on time.
