Startup accounting for Canadian companies

Start on the Free Plan with no credit card, then upgrade only when the business needs it. Prices in Canadian dollars.

Free Plan with unlimited invoices, bills & quotes — no credit card.

The upgrade path

All prices in Canadian dollars (CAD).

  • Free, C$0: unlimited invoices, bills and quotes, 2 users, core reports
  • Pro, C$22.99/month or C$229/year: unlimited users and bank connections, multi-currency with automatic FX, recurring invoices, no badge
  • Business, C$91.99/month: multi-warehouse inventory, multi-entity and API access

GST/HST on every line

Once you are registered, add your GST/HST number and HelloBooks applies GST, HST, or GST plus the provincial tax to each line based on where the sale is made. The tax you pay on business purchases is recorded as input tax credits.

HelloBooks prepares your GST/HST return figures from posted invoices and bills; you file them with the CRA. This page is general information, not tax advice.

What the Free Plan includes in Canada

The Free Plan is C$0 with no credit card and no expiry. Your ledger never locks.

Bank connections: Canada is a Plaid-supported market with connections rolling out by region, and Free includes 1 live bank feed where your bank is supported. Statement upload (PDF/CSV) with AI parsing works today everywhere.

Free AI credits are included to get started. When they run out, upgrade to get more AI credits (paid plans can also top up with a credit pack), and the books keep working either way.

Pro is C$22.99/month or C$229/year and Business is C$91.99/month. All prices in Canadian dollars (CAD).

  • Unlimited invoices, bills and quotes, GST/HST-ready
  • Unlimited email payment reminders
  • 2 users, so your accountant can work in the books with you
  • AP/AR aging, P&L, balance sheet and cash flow reports
  • The iOS and Android mobile app
  • Free invoices carry a small "Powered by HelloBooks" badge; Pro removes it
