Yebo Invoices

bo Invoices is a quoting and invoicing platform designed specifically for South African small businesses and trades. It lets users create quotes by speaking a voice note, which the app converts into an editable draft with itemised line items and prices. Quotes can be sent by WhatsApp or email as a single link, and the sender can see when a client opens the quote. Clients can accept with a typed name, request changes, or decline with a reason, and accepted quotes convert into invoices with due dates and EFT details.

Payment is handled through the user's own PayFast account, supporting card and instant EFT. Invoices include a Pay now button, and the system marks an invoice as paid only when PayFast confirms the payment. Deposits can be requested on quotes and are credited against the final invoice. The platform also provides a dashboard showing collected, outstanding, and overdue amounts, monthly targets, quote win/loss results, and a VAT sales summary for accountants.

Beyond quoting and invoicing, Yebo Invoices includes a tender hub that surfaces live government eTenders matched to the user's trade and province. It can read bill of quantities documents, check compliance documents such as CSD, SARS, B-BBEE, and COIDA, and send bids by email. The product appears to be positioned as an all-in-one tool for South African small businesses, combining quoting, payments, reporting, and tender discovery. Pricing information on the site indicates plans starting from R49 a month, and a free tier may be available but should be verified.
