FatturaFacile
Free software for people starting out

A real programfor schools and for people starting out

No toy examples. FatturaFacile is a real program, for Italy and Switzerland, and we make it available for free to students, teachers and schools.

Two paths

For people who code and for people who study business

Whether you want to read the code or try running a small business, there is a path for you.

Path A: computingTechnical schools • Vocational training • Universities

Learn to program on a real project

At school you often work on small examples. Here you get a complete, working program with public code that you can read, try and improve.

Tidy code

The program is split into clear parts (data, rules, interface). A good example of how a project is organised.

Database and data

You work with a real database and its changes over time (migrations).

Automatic tests and checks

Tests and quality checks run on GitHub with every change. You can learn to write your own.

Theses and work placements

You can write a feature or a test and see your work published, with your name in the release notes.

Path B: business and commercial practiceBusiness schools • Accounting • Fiduciaries

Simulate a company without paying licences

Schools should not spend thousands of euros a year on a management program. With FatturaFacile every student can run a simulated company from their own desk.

Italian e-invoicing

Create the e-invoice file (FatturaPA) and learn the data it needs: recipient code, stamp duty, flat-rate regime.

Swiss QR-bill

Issue the invoice with the QR payment slip, with IBAN or QR-IBAN and Swiss VAT rates.

No cost for the school

The program is free. Try it online in the demo, or install it on a school server.

From quote to payment

Study the whole cycle: quote, customer acceptance, numbered invoice and payment tracking.

Why we do it

Our social commitment

Going digital should not become a hidden tax. Anyone starting a business should be able to use serious, safe tools without spending money.

Help for young tradespeople

Electricians, plumbers and fitters leaving vocational schools should think about the work, not the software. We give them a complete program, with no debt and no fees.

No subscription

Subscriptions weigh on small businesses and slow their growth. FatturaFacile is free, with no "free but limited" versions.

Your data stays yours

We sell nothing to anyone and data stays on the server where the program is installed. Site statistics (Google Analytics) start only if you accept them.

For teachers and coordinators

Are you a teacher or a school head?

We help teachers for free to prepare material, guides and exercises. We can give a presentation online or in class and provide guides for computing and business labs.

We usually reply within 24-48 hours. There is no cost.
