Managing Multiple Businesses From One Account

Running a side project alongside your main gig — or juggling a few ventures at once — no longer means separate logins and separate bills. Here's how multiple organisations in Billable keep each business clean and separate on a single subscription.

Plenty of solo businesses aren’t really one business. There’s the consulting you do under your own name, the little product you sell on the side, maybe a second venture you started with a friend. Each one has its own clients, its own invoices, its own look — and until now, keeping them apart in Billable meant keeping them apart everywhere: separate logins, separate subscriptions, separate mental overhead.

That changes today. Billable now lets you create and manage multiple organisations from a single account, all on one subscription.

What an “organisation” actually is

An organisation is a self-contained business inside your account. Each one keeps its own:

  • Clients, projects and contractors — the people and work that belong to that venture
  • Invoices and quotes — numbered independently, so each business has its own tidy sequence
  • Branding and details — its own logo, business name and address on every document
  • Defaults — its own home currency and default tax rate

Nothing crosses over. A client you add to your consulting business never appears when you’re invoicing under your side project, and the totals on each dashboard reflect only that business. When you’re inside an organisation, Billable behaves as if it’s the only one you have.

Switching between them

You don’t log out to move between businesses. Pick the organisation you want from a single menu, and Billable swaps the whole context — clients, invoices, dashboard, branding — in a click. Raise an invoice, and it goes out under the right business, with the right logo and the right numbering, automatically.

That’s the real win: the friction of “which account am I in again?” simply goes away.

One subscription, not several

The part that used to sting was the billing. Two businesses meant two subscriptions; three meant three. Now a single Billable subscription covers every organisation you create. Add a new venture and there’s no new bill to set up, no second card on file — you just create it and start working.

Who this is for

Multiple organisations earn their keep the moment you’re wearing more than one hat:

  • Side-project owners who want their weekend product kept cleanly apart from their day-to-day freelancing.
  • Serial founders running two or three small ventures who’d rather not pay for — or log into — a separate tool for each.
  • Anyone testing an idea who wants a real, separate set of books for it without committing to a whole second account.

Getting started

If you’re already on Billable, you’ll find the option to create a new organisation in the account menu. Give it a name, add its logo and details, set its currency and tax defaults, and it’s ready — a fresh, empty set of books for that business, sitting right alongside the one you already run.

One login. Clean separation. One bill. However many businesses you’re building, Billable now grows with you instead of multiplying alongside you.
