The best alternatives to Abby in 2026

Looking for an alternative to Abby to handle invoicing and URSSAF for your micro-entreprise (France's simplified sole-trader status)? Abby is complete with a free plan, but the advanced features (accounting, reminders, e-signature) are paid. Whether you want 100% free, more accounting or a built-in business account, here are 5 invoicing tools we recommend to freelancers registered in France.

Our selection

FreebeFrom €12.50/month on annual billing (micro-entreprise, French offer)

Invoicing and accounting software for freelancers and auto-entrepreneurs registered in France: quotes, invoices and URSSAF filings in a few clicks.

Read our review of Freebe
  • Invoicing, cash flow and pre-accounting in one tool

Why look for an alternative to Abby?

  • The free plan is limited: Abby's free plan covers invoices and the URSSAF estimate, but bank tracking and advanced accounting are paid. Henrri and Facture.net are 100% free for invoicing.
  • More invoicing than accounting: if you want real automated accounting (and not just invoices), Indy goes much further, with a free plan.
  • You want a built-in business account: Tiime adds a business account to invoicing, free to start.
  • 100% simple micro-entreprise: Freebe is Abby's direct equivalent for invoicing + URSSAF, with a very clean interface.

For a micro-entrepreneur in France who wants a modern all-in-one tool, Abby remains a good choice, but these alternatives are either free or stronger on accounting depending on your needs.
