United States invoicing questions
Does Ascend calculate US sales tax?
You set the combined rate that applies to your customer and Ascend applies it per line item, with the tax total shown separately on the invoice.
How do clients pay?
Each invoice carries a secure card payment link. Once paid, the invoice updates itself and your client receives a branded receipt by email.
Can I send estimates before the work?
Yes. Send a quote or estimate, get it approved, then convert it into an invoice without retyping anything.
Is there a free trial?
Every paid plan starts with a 7-day free trial. You add a card at checkout and aren't charged until the trial ends; cancel anytime.
