Magic Heidi Invoicing Software Built for Swiss Gardeners Who Work in the Field
Create professional QR invoices directly from your phone—while you're still at the job site. Your customer scans and pays immediately. No office, no delays, no cash flow problems.
You just finished pruning a client's hedge. They're thrilled with the work and ask, "Can I pay you now?"
You hesitate. "I'll send the invoice when I get back to the office."
That moment of delay? It costs you. The urgency fades. The payment gets pushed to "later." Your cash flow suffers while you wait.
Magic Heidi eliminates that problem. Create professional, Swiss-compliant QR invoices directly from your phone—while you're still at the job site. Your customer scans and pays immediately. You move on to the next job with confidence.
Why Gardeners Need Different Invoicing Software
Generic accounting tools aren't built for how you actually work. You're not sitting at a desk all day. You're planting, mowing, trimming, and maintaining gardens across multiple locations. Between jobs, receipts pile up in your truck—fuel, plants, tools, fertilizer.

Cash flow suffers during peak seasonDelayed Invoicing Costs You Money
When your annual revenue fluctuates seasonally, maintaining steady cash flow requires speed.
Here's what happens:
- Invoice sent 3 days after job completion
- Client pays in 30 days (from invoice date)
- You wait 33 days for money you earned on day 1
- Meanwhile, you need to buy supplies for the next job
When you're managing seasonal cash flow fluctuations, those delays matter. The faster you invoice, the faster you get paid, the more working capital you have for busy season.

How It Works: Garden Installation
You've just completed a garden installation. You planted 15 shrubs and spent 4 hours preparing the soil. Here's how Magic Heidi saves you time.
Swiss Compliance Made Simple
Switzerland requires specific invoicing standards that generic international software can't handle.
QR Code Invoices Are Mandatory
Since October 2022, all Swiss invoices must include a scannable QR code. Magic Heidi generates compliant QR invoices automatically. No setup, no configuration, no worrying about regulatory updates.
- Meets all Swiss federal requirements
- Updated for Nov 2025 regulations
- Structured addresses included
- Automatic bank transfer information
Multiple VAT Rates on One Invoice
When you sell plants (2.6% VAT) and provide services (8.1% VAT), most software forces you to create separate invoices or manually calculate rates. Magic Heidi handles this correctly.

- Automatic total calculations
- Proper accounting entries
- One clean invoice for customers

Handles both simplified bookkeeping (under CHF 100k) and full accounting (over CHF 100k). Adapts to your VAT registration status automatically.
