Less than half the price
$7.95 a month against the Blinksale $19, for comparably unlimited invoicing.
Scheduler, reconciliation, e-sign, QR
All included, and all absent from Blinksale, so you are not bolting on separate tools.
Follow-ups on quotes too
Billbooks chases outstanding quotes automatically, not just invoices.

If crypto payments matter to you, that is a real advantage. Billbooks is for people who want the same unlimited invoicing plus a scheduler, reconciliation, e-signatures, and a payment QR code, at a lower flat price.
Unlimited invoicing at less than half the price, with more included.
A plan built for high-volume transactions or business models that do not fit the mold.

Yes. Billbooks Basic costs $7.95 a month against Blinksale at $19 a month, or $15.83 billed annually. Blinksale has one plan, so $19 is both its entry price and its only price.
Blinksale puts unlimited invoices, estimates and clients on its single $19 plan, with no client cap to think about. Billbooks caps clients by plan, starting at 100 on Basic, so a business with several hundred clients pays more with Billbooks than with Blinksale.
Switch to Billbooks if you want bank reconciliation, an appointment scheduler, digital signatures or a payment QR code, none of which Blinksale offers, at less than half the price. Stay with Blinksale if you have more clients than a Billbooks plan allows.
Billbooks is a direct Blinksale alternative at $7.95 against $19, and it adds reconciliation, scheduling, e-signatures and scan-to-pay QR codes that Blinksale does not provide. The trade is Billbooks per-plan client limits against Blinksale unlimited clients.

Blinksale follows up on invoices only. Billbooks sends automatic follow-ups on quotes too, so an estimate that has gone quiet gets chased without you remembering to do it. On project work that is often where the revenue leaks.
