Boxridge Ledger
Estimates, invoices, job profit and tax prep for small businesses.
Boxridge Ledger is bookkeeping for people who would rather be working. Write up an estimate from your price list, email it, and your client approves and signs it on their phone; then turn it into an invoice they can pay online in one click, and Ledger sends a polite reminder if it runs late. See what every job actually made after materials, miles and labor. Log expenses, pull in the spreadsheets you already keep, and have tax-ready totals when you need them. Tell it what kind of work you do (trades and contracting, office and professional services, or photography and events) and it uses your words. It syncs across your PCs, so you can run the business from the road.
Made for: Contractors and the trades, offices and consultants, photographers, and sole proprietors.

Boxridge Ledger FAQ
Is it accounting software?
It is simple bookkeeping for small businesses and freelancers, not a replacement for an accountant.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Every feature works free for 30 days, with no account and no credit card. After that your books stay open to view, print, export and back up; adding or changing records needs a license key.
How does the license key work?
After you buy, your key is shown on screen, emailed to you and kept in your account. Paste it into LedgerBox (Help, Enter License Key). The first time, the app activates it online (one license covers 3 of your PCs, and you can move it from your account any time). After that it works offline and never expires.
