Pricing
Hiveage started as a freemium service, but changed to a fixed plan pricing strategy in September 2016. During the time it functioned as a freemium service, Hiveage had a free plan which supported unlimited invoicing and unlimited clients, with PayPal as the payment gateway, and a modular pricing scheme which allowed users to selectively add more features.
