I tried other proposal software and it was clunky.
Now I deliver proposals that actually impress clients, my conversion rate is up, and Anchor makes sure I get paid on the first of the month.

Reviews from QuickBooks Marketplace

“Proposals in under 60 secs, best support!”

“Once my templates were built out, I can have a proposal out the door in less than 60 seconds. The support and customer service are fantastic, one of the best in the software 'sphere' I work in.”

KariB, United States
Yes, I recommend this product.

"Perfect for any service based business"

Anchor has allowed me to provide clients the ability to choose the package that works for them while automatically collecting payment monthly.  It has removed me for collecting payment which has been a huge time saver as a solo firm runner."

KatieH, United States
 It's incredibly cost effective and easy to use.

"Amazing Proposal and Invoicing Tool"

Anchor has been awesome since we've started using it! I like that you can build out your templates, and send very professional and customizable proposals to clients. I've gotten great feedback from clients overall, and I like the different features Anchor has to offer. It's also very inexpensive and offers tremendous value.

FAQ

How long does it take to migrate my accounting firm from GoProposal to Anchor?

You can launch your first live agreement the same day using Anchor’s self-serve platform. For established firms moving away from GoProposal, our dedicated onboarding team recreates your proposal templates, engagement terms, and service packages.

How does Anchor function as engagement letter software compared to GoProposal's OverSuite add-on?

Anchor includes legally binding, auto-updating digital agreements directly in its core platform at no extra charge, while GoProposal requires purchasing OverSuite, a separate UK-only add-on, to generate compliant engagement letters. Anchor embeds enforceable agreements directly into the payment workflow for US firms, turning signed contracts into active billing schedules automatically.

How does Anchor's pricing model compare to GoProposal's monthly subscriptions?

Anchor charges a flat $5 per successful payment with zero monthly subscriptions, user seat fees, or feature paywalls. GoProposal charges tiered monthly subscriptions ranging from $75 to $255 per month, plus additional monthly fees if you require engagement letters and/or compliance checks.

Does Anchor require a third-party payment processor to collect client fees?

No, Anchor features built-in payment processing with native ACH and credit card handling, securing payment details upfront during proposal signing. ACH bank transfers are completely free ($0), while credit card transactions incur a standard 2.9% + $0.30 fee that you can choose to absorb or pass directly to your clients via an automated surcharge.

Can I adjust the scope or pricing of an agreement even after a client has signed?

Yes, Anchor allows you to update service scopes, hourly caps, or rates in one click directly on the live agreement. The platform automatically recalculates future billing schedules and updates the shared audit trail without requiring you to draft, cancel, or re-send a brand-new proposal.

Can Anchor automatically reconcile client payments directly with my bookkeeping software?

Yes, Anchor automates two-way ledger reconciliation in real time with QuickBooks Online, Xero, and more. When a client payment clears, Anchor automatically matches the transaction, records the net deposit, and posts processing fees to the correct chart of accounts without manual entry. Explore all of our integrations here.

Can my firm bill international clients and collect cross-border payments on Anchor?

Yes, Anchor enables US-registered firms to seamlessly bill and collect payments from international clients worldwide. International clients can pay invoices using a credit card or an American bank account, with all transactions processed securely in USD.

Does Anchor limit how many proposals I can send?

No.
For go GoProposal's, As of September 2026, published plans include 5 proposals per month on Solo ($75), 10 on Basic ($120), 50 on Standard ($150), and unlimited on Premium ($255). Seats are capped at 1, 1, 2, and 10 respectively. Anchor includes unlimited proposals, agreements, users, and clients at no monthly cost.

 Do clients need to create logins or download an app to sign proposals and pay?

No, your clients access proposals, agreements, and payment portals instantly via secure magic links delivered by email. Clients never have to create passwords, register accounts, or navigate complex third-party portals to approve work or pay invoices.

What does it cost to add team members to Anchor?

Nothing. Users are unlimited and free. GoProposal's tiers cap seats, so a three-person firm needs the $255/month Premium plan for seats alone.
