Detailed Review
Tiime is a French invoicing and accounting platform whose customer support team is explicitly based in France, and it carries "Plateforme Agréée" status — an approved platform under France's phased rollout of mandatory B2B e-invoicing, which starts affecting all businesses from 2026 onward.
Pricing scales by headcount rather than a single flat tier: free for solo micro-enterprises, then Smart and Business tiers that get more expensive as a company adds employees (2-5, 6-20, 20+), topping out at a custom quote for the largest accounts.
Paid tiers add payment links, multi-user access and treasury forecasting on top of the free plan's core invoicing, expense management and bank synchronisation. For a business that expects to grow past a single founder, the headcount-based pricing is transparent about what growth will cost, which is not true of every vendor in this category.
The trade-off is that Tiime does not publish a founding date or a detailed legal-entity address on its marketing pages, so a buyer wanting that level of corporate detail will need to ask directly.
What Tiime does well
- French company with support explicitly based in France
- Approved e-invoicing platform status ahead of France's 2026 mandatory B2B rollout
- Genuine free plan for solo micro-enterprises, not a time-limited trial
- Bank synchronisation and treasury forecasting on paid tiers
Where Tiime falls short
- No founding date or detailed legal-entity address published on the marketing site
- Pricing scales by headcount band, so it takes a moment to find your own tier
- Largest accounts (20+ employees) are quote-only rather than published
Standout feature. Approved-platform status for France's e-invoicing mandate, built in rather than bolted on ahead of the 2026 rollout.
