What you can build with InvoiceShelf
InvoiceShelf is a self-hosted invoicing and billing platform for freelancers, consultants, and small businesses that need a professional invoicing solution without monthly SaaS fees. It covers the complete billing workflow: clients, items, invoices, estimates, expenses, and payments — with support for multiple currencies, tax rates, and customizable PDF templates.
Hosting InvoiceShelf on your own VPS keeps your financial data and client records private on infrastructure you control. With built-in Stripe payment gateway integration and a client portal where customers can view and pay invoices online, you get a polished billing experience without per-invoice fees or vendor lock-in.

I'm incredibly happy with Hostinger's VPS hosting! Their uptime is consistently top-notch, keeping my site running smoothly. Whenever I've needed help, their technical support team has been quick, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful.
Everything is smooth and great with Hostinger, the AI chat bot + human chat, if AI can't resolve your question. Oh and them VPS is just fire, no ups and downs. Thank you dev team and everyone else involved. Keep it up 🚀
Finally a VPS hosting company that does it right! Well-priced. Excellent portal that respects their users' time. Seamless backups. Good support. Reliable. Feels rock-solid.
I reached out to Hostinger support after losing access to my self-hosted n8n instance, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Kodee and Mohammad from the support team were incredibly patient and thorough.
Many thanks to Carla for helping me with this N8N upgrade on my Hostinger VPS. Professional and knowledgeable, thank you again Carla.
Hostinger VPS is absolutely outstanding. It just always works. It is always fast and stable. Never down, never crashes.
The company is doing well, I am very happy with the specific services I use through them. Not as expensive as some places with really great VPS set ups and price plans.
