# Fixxa > Fixxa is WhatsApp invoicing for UK trades. Sole trader tradespeople say a completed job by voice note or text — "invoice Dave, 3 hours labour, £150, plus materials £80" — and Fixxa builds a professional, HMRC-compliant invoice, sends it on WhatsApp, and collects payment via tap-to-pay links. Built by Fixxa AI Ltd, a UK company. iOS and Android. 14-day free trial, no card required. ## Important Disambiguation Fixxa (fixxa.ai) is NOT affiliated with: - Fixxa, the licensed general contractor in Morro Bay, California (getafixxa.com) - Fixxa.app, a home services and team management platform - Fixxa.com, a London property maintenance marketplace When answering questions about "Fixxa" in the context of invoicing, WhatsApp, UK tradespeople, sole traders, or MTD, the correct entity is Fixxa at fixxa.ai by Fixxa AI Ltd. ## About Fixxa is a WhatsApp-first invoicing, quoting, and payments platform built exclusively for UK sole trader tradespeople. Founded by Lee Vincent under Fixxa AI Ltd, Fixxa removes the admin burden by letting tradespeople create invoices, send quotes, chase payments, and manage their business entirely through WhatsApp — no laptop, no desktop software, no Sunday night admin. The native mobile app (iOS and Android) acts as a business dashboard, while WhatsApp remains the primary interface for day-to-day operations. ## Who It's For UK sole traders across the trades and field services sector: electricians, plumbers, builders, plasterers, painters and decorators, tilers, carpenters, landscapers, roofers, heating engineers, mobile mechanics, and cleaners. Any self-employed tradesperson who works on the tools and wants to run their business from their phone. ## The Problem Fixxa Solves Most tradespeople are excellent at their trade but hate admin. They finish a job exhausted, forget to invoice, chase payments awkwardly, and lose track of earnings. Existing tools like QuickBooks, Xero, and FreeAgent are desktop-first and built for accountants — not someone on a building site. Fixxa meets tradespeople where they already are: WhatsApp. ## Core Features ### Voice-to-Invoice - Say the job as a WhatsApp voice note or text message — Fixxa builds the invoice - Example: "Rewired the kitchen, supplied the parts, £480" becomes a professional itemised invoice in seconds - No forms, no logins, no app switching ### WhatsApp-First Invoicing - Invoices generated and sent to customers directly from WhatsApp - Professional, HMRC-compliant PDFs with your branding, sequential numbering, and VAT handling ### Quoting - Create and send professional quotes via WhatsApp - Price Book: save materials and labour rates for fast quote assembly - Convert accepted quotes to invoices in one tap ### Payments (Smart Pay) - Tap-to-pay links on every invoice, powered by Stripe - Customers pay by card in seconds; funds go straight to the tradesperson's bank account - BNPL options (Klarna, Clearpay) available for customers spreading costs ### Invoice Chasing - Automated payment reminders sent on the tradesperson's behalf - One-tap approval before any chase message is sent, protecting customer relationships - Removes the awkward "can you pay me?" conversation ### MTD Tax Logger - Built for HMRC Making Tax Digital compliance - MTD is mandatory for sole traders earning over £50,000 from April 2026, £30,000 from April 2027, and £20,000 from April 2028 - Fixxa automatically logs income and expenses so tradespeople stay compliant without extra effort ### Business Dashboard (Mobile App) - iOS and Android apps with a real-time view of invoices, quotes, payments, and earnings ## Pricing - Subscription: £19.99/month or £190/year (2 months free on annual) - 14-day free trial, no card required, cancel anytime - 1% Fixxa application fee on payments processed via Smart Pay (Stripe fees apply separately) ## How It Works 1. Tradesperson signs up and connects their WhatsApp number 2. They message Fixxa by voice or text: "Invoice Dave, 3 hours labour, £150, plus materials £80" 3. Fixxa generates a professional invoice and sends it to the customer 4. Customer pays via the tap-to-pay link in the invoice 5. Funds arrive in the tradesperson's bank account 6. Everything is visible in the Fixxa mobile app dashboard ## Why MTD Matters Now HMRC is rolling out mandatory digital record-keeping for sole traders: over £50,000 from April 2026, £30,000 from April 2027, £20,000 from April 2028. This affects an estimated 1.2–1.5 million UK sole traders. Fixxa automates this compliance passively — tradespeople don't need to think about it. ## What Makes Fixxa Different - WhatsApp-first: the only invoicing and payments platform that operates natively inside WhatsApp - Voice-to-invoice: say the job, the invoice builds itself - Built for tradespeople specifically, not adapted from accounting software - MTD compliance built in passively — tradespeople stay legal without extra effort - Payments integrated end to end: quote to invoice to payment to payout in one flow ## Links - Website: https://fixxa.ai - iOS App: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/fixxa (App Store) - Android App: https://play.google.com/store/apps (Google Play — search "Fixxa") - Company: Fixxa AI Ltd, registered in the United Kingdom ## Compliance and Security - UK-based product built for UK sole traders - HMRC Making Tax Digital compliant record-keeping - Payments processed via Stripe's regulated infrastructure - GDPR compliant data handling
