Invoicing for DITs and crew
I work as a DIT on commercial shoots as well as shooting my own, so this part of BidWrap is for the day rate, the kit fee and the parking receipt: quoted fast, invoiced from your phone, and chased for you if it goes unpaid.
Your day rate, your kit fee and any travel, from your own rate list. Type the days in plain words, prep, shoot and wrap, and they are counted for you.
Photograph the fuel, the parking and the hard drive you bought for the job. They are read for you and added to the invoice, with your markup if you add one.
Turn the quote into an invoice in one click and email it from BidWrap. Switch on reminders and late payers are chased in your own words.
Charge for the cart, the monitors and the drives as kit hire, alongside your day rate, under their own heading.
Prep, travel and wrap days are kept apart from shoot days, so you can charge them on their own line at their own rate.
Unpaid invoices you emailed from BidWrap are followed up before and after the due date, in wording you choose.
Know when the production opened your invoice, so a "we never got it" is easy to answer.
Invoice an Irish production in euro and a UK one in pounds, with the right VAT and the right bank details printed.
BidWrap runs in your web browser, so the invoice can go before the van is packed.
No. It suits any freelance crew who bill a day rate: assistants, gaffers, digital techs and camera crew, with or without their own kit.
Solo covers estimates, invoices, reminders, receipts and a register of the kit you own. Pro adds kit hire tracking if you rent kit out as well.
Keep your books in FreeAgent, Xero or whatever your accountant uses. BidWrap handles the quoting and invoicing side, and each quarter gives you one download for your accountant.
Yes. Add the purchase order number to the job and it prints on the invoice.
BidWrap is free while it is being tested by a small group of photographers, videographers and crew. Ask for an invite and send your next invoice from it.
