Accounting, not shop management. Here's how we stack up.
Keep your accounting software. Add Printer's Friend for everything that happens before the invoice.
Accounting software tells you what happened after the fact. It does not quote a job, schedule a press or hold an artwork approval. Printer's Friend runs the job and issues the invoice; Xero and QuickBooks Online invoice sync is built for on Premium and above and is not available yet; we will say so here the day it is connectable.
We publish our own pricing on the pricing page, in your currency. We do not quote QuickBooks's numbers here, because we have not verified them recently and a stale figure is worse than none .
One monthly price and no add-on fees. Where something needs a higher plan, the card says which.
Screen, DTG, DTF, embroidery, sublimation and transfers each price on their own model, with garment cost, setup, quantity breaks and margin visible on the quote line.
On every plan
A kanban for the office that updates every fifteen seconds, a full-screen wallboard for the shop, and per-station screens filtered to the stages that station cares about. Barcode scan advances a job.
On every plan
Staff clock on and off at a floor station against an order number. Hours cost at each person's labour rate, so reports show margin after labour, not just gross margin.
On every plan
Assign a rep to an order and their rate is frozen onto it. Commission is earned on dispatch, on the ex-tax value, and totals per rep sit in Reports.
On every plan
Customers sign in under your branding to approve artwork, track the production stage, pay invoices and reorder past jobs. Unlimited portal users, no per-seat charge.
On every plan
Team stores at your workspace address, group-buy campaign pages and an in-store kiosk, all included. Every storefront page carries its own social card and share buttons so a link unfurls with the product picture.
On every plan
SKU-level stock with a movement ledger, reorder points, suggested purchase orders, PO emailing to the supplier, receiving and cycle counts. Any supplier's range imports from CSV.
On every plan
A REST API for customers, orders and inventory, and signed outbound webhooks on order stage changes, so any tool you already run stays in step.
On Premium and above
If your only unmet need is bookkeeping, you do not need shop software yet.
14 day trial. Card collected at signup, not charged until the trial ends. Cancel anytime.
Nothing to migrate. Invoices are branded PDFs you can download at any time, and the accounting sync pushes them across once it is connected. We do it for free in your first onboarding session.
