Zulu

Invoices for Irish businesses, done in minutes.

Create, send and track VAT-ready invoices and credit notes. Free for 30 days, no card needed.

The Zulu app showing this month's invoice totals, a list of invoices, and a paid invoice for €2,372.15.

Built for Ireland

Made for Irish VAT, not adapted to it.

Most invoicing tools are built for somewhere else and patched for Ireland. Zulu starts here, so your invoices are right from the first one.

  • Irish VAT rates, ready to go

    All five rates are set up the moment you sign up. Pick one per item and the maths is done for you.

  • A VAT breakdown on every invoice

    Net and VAT for each rate, with your VAT number, as a VAT invoice must show.

  • Credit notes done properly

    Never edit a sent invoice. Issue a full or partial credit note that links back to it.

  • Euro, counties and Eircodes

    Prices in euro and addresses the Irish way, so nothing looks out of place.

Zulu's VAT rates: Standard 23%, Reduced 13.5%, Second reduced 9%, Livestock 4.8%, Zero 0%, and an invoice showing net and VAT for each rate.

How it works

From sign-up to your first invoice in a few minutes.

  1. Add your business

    Your name, VAT number and logo. It takes a minute.

  2. Create an invoice

    Pick a customer and your items. Totals and VAT add up as you type.

  3. Send it and get paid

    Email it straight from Zulu and see when it’s been delivered and paid.

Questions

Do I need a card to start?

No. Every new business gets 30 days of Pro free, without a card, so nobody can be charged by surprise.

What happens after the free trial?

If you haven’t chosen a paid plan, your business moves to Free. Nothing is deleted or locked: you keep every invoice, and can send up to 5 a month.

Is it VAT compliant?

Yes. Invoices carry everything Irish VAT rules ask for: your VAT number, sequential numbers, the VAT rate and amount on each line, and a breakdown by rate. Credit notes refer to the invoice they correct.

Can my accountant use it?

Yes. Invite them to your business and give them the role that suits. One person can belong to several businesses, so accountants can switch between their clients.

Can I cancel any time?

Yes. There are no contracts. Cancel whenever you like: you keep your plan until the end of the period you've paid for, then move to Free with all your invoices.

Where is my data stored?

On secure servers, used only to run Zulu. Issued invoices are kept for six years, as Irish law requires, even if you delete your account.

Can I add credit notes on Free?

Yes. Credit notes are unlimited on every plan and never count towards a limit.

Get paid for your work, not your paperwork.

Add your business, pick a customer and send a VAT-ready invoice in the time it takes to boil the kettle.
