KleinBooks – Rechnungen & E-Rechnung für Kleinunternehmer & Selbstständige
Dashboard: invoiced revenue, open and overdue invoices, expenses and your Kleinunternehmer limit at a glance.
Heute Kleinunternehmer, morgen mit Umsatzsteuer — KleinBooks wächst mit.
KleinBooks brings the German business workflow — Angebot Rechnung (quote invoice) — directly into your own WordPress admin. No second tool, no monthly SaaS subscription. Start as a Kleinunternehmer (§19 UStG); when your business passes the €25,000 limit, switch to Regelbesteuerung (standard VAT) with one confirmed click and keep working in the same tool.
Free
- Write quotes (Angebote) and convert them to an invoice in one click

- Kleinunternehmer Regelbesteuerung switch — 19 % / 7 % VAT, net / VAT / gross on invoices and quotes, USt-IdNr, input VAT (Vorsteuer) on expenses and a VAT-owed (USt-Zahllast) overview. Invoices you already issued keep their tax treatment.
Pro
KleinBooks Pro (€69 / year incl. 19% German VAT, i.e. €57.98 net; the VAT follows your country, businesses with a VAT ID pay net; 14-day free trial without credit card that ends automatically) is a separate paid version that adds the bookkeeping side. It is sold by our authorised reseller (Merchant of Record) Freemius, Inc.:
- GoBD lock — sent invoices can no longer be changed; corrections go through a proper Stornorechnung (own number) and an optional correction invoice
- DATEV export (EXTF, SKR03/SKR04) for your tax advisor
- USt-Voranmeldung — your quarterly or monthly VAT return figures (Ist or Soll taxation) with PDF
- ZUGFeRD / Factur-X e-invoices — for VAT-registered businesses (issuing becomes mandatory from 2027/2028); Kleinunternehmer are exempt from issuing e-invoices
- AfA / Abschreibung — depreciation of assets
The free version is an invoicing tool: sent invoices stay editable. GoBD lock with Storno is part of KleinBooks Pro.
