FAQ

Questions about the features

What features does Magic Heidi have?

Everything in the money cycle of a sole proprietorship: quotes and QR invoices with automatic payment reminders, AI receipt scanning, bank matching, VAT returns and a year-end export. On top of that: client management, recurring invoices, hours on the invoice, accountant access and an API. It all runs on iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac, Windows and the web, in German, French, Italian, English, Spanish, Portuguese or Romansh.

Does the free plan include every feature?

Yes. You try every feature with 3 invoices and 3 receipts, in total and with no time limit. You don't need a credit card. After that, Pro costs CHF 24.99 per month on the yearly plan (CHF 299) or CHF 39 monthly, VAT included. Details on the pricing page.

What if Magic Heidi isn't right for me?

You start for free with 3 invoices and 3 receipts, no credit card. Pro comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee, and you can cancel any time right in the app. You can export all your data whenever you like.

Is Magic Heidi enough for my sole proprietorship's bookkeeping?

For most people, yes. Up to CHF 500'000 in revenue, simplified bookkeeping (income, expenses, financial position) is enough, and that's exactly what Magic Heidi covers. If you run a GmbH or AG, you need double-entry bookkeeping. Then you use Magic Heidi for the day-to-day work and hand the export to your accountant. More under accounting software.

I'm not registered for VAT. Do I need the VAT features?

Not yet. Below CHF 100'000 in annual revenue you don't have to register for VAT, and Magic Heidi creates your invoices without VAT. Once you cross the threshold, you switch VAT on in the settings. When that becomes necessary is explained in the VAT guide for freelancers.

Can I send invoices to clients abroad?

Yes. You pick the language (German, French, Italian, English or Romansh) and the currency, for example EUR, USD or GBP, per client or per document. For clients abroad you add matching bank details, such as a Wise or Revolut account; they then replace the QR payment slip. You add the VAT note (e.g. "place of supply abroad") in the footer.

Already using bexio or Excel? How do I switch?

Drag your client, invoice or expense list into Magic Heidi as an Excel or CSV file. The AI recognises the format and maps the fields, so you don't need a template. The import guide shows how. How bexio differs is covered in the bexio comparison.

Can my accountant work with me?

Yes. You give your accountant or a second person their own login, at no extra cost. Or you export receipts as a ZIP and the numbers as Excel. That way they get tidy records instead of a shoebox. More on working with your accountant.

Where is my data stored?

Your invoices, receipts and client data are stored encrypted on servers in Zurich. Some features, such as AI receipt scanning, use services that partly run outside Switzerland. There's a backup every week, and you can export all your data at any time. Details under security.

A feature I need is missing. What now?
