    Frequently Asked Questions

    What's the best invoice app for contractors?

    Glo Invoice supports estimates, deposits, progress billing, and change orders with signed approvals — built for how contractors actually run projects.

    Can I collect a deposit before starting work?

    Yes. Require a deposit on estimate approval; funds land in your bank before you swing a hammer.

    How do change orders work?

    Add change-order line items to the existing estimate or invoice, send for signature, and the customer approves digitally before you bill them.
