HoneyBook alternative
The HoneyBook alternative that takes 0% of your payments
After HoneyBook's 2025 price increase, a lot of freelancers started shopping around. Delivvo gives you the same all-in-one setup (portal, proposals, contracts, invoices, payments) for less, and it never takes a cut of what your clients pay you.

Where Delivvo wins
- $15/mo vs $36/mo after HoneyBook's price hike.
- 0% on payments. HoneyBook charges 2.9% + 25¢ on every card payment, which adds up fast on real invoices.
- Your clients pay you directly through your own Stripe, PayPal, or regional gateway. HoneyBook is the merchant and holds the money first.
When HoneyBook is the better pick
HoneyBook has a deeper template library and a large, active community, and it's well established in photography and events. If you're already running your business inside it, switching has a real cost.
If the price jump made you look, Delivvo is cheaper and takes nothing on your payments. You keep your own gateway and stay the merchant of record.
