What Is Money Pro?

Money Pro is ZenBusiness's bookkeeping and invoicing software for small businesses. It connects to your bank account to automatically import and categorize transactions into IRS Schedule C expense categories, generates tax reports, lets you create and send invoices, and tracks business mileage. It costs $30/month or $300/year and is available at zenbusiness.com → Finance → Money Pro.

What Money Pro Does

Money Pro handles the financial tracking that most small business owners find tedious:

Automatic expense tracking — Connect your bank account and Money Pro imports transactions automatically. It categorizes them using IRS Schedule C expense categories (Advertising, Office Expenses, Business Meals, Travel, etc.) — the same categories you use on your tax return.

Invoicing — Create professional invoices, send them to clients, track payment status, set up recurring billing for retainer clients, and accept credit card or ACH payments directly from invoices.

Mileage tracking — Log business trips in the ZenBusiness mobile app. Money Pro applies the current IRS standard mileage rate (2026: $0.725/mile; 2025: $0.70/mile) and generates a mileage report for your taxes.

Tax reports — Generate a Schedule C expense report, Profit & Loss statement, and Mileage Detail List anytime. These are the reports your accountant or tax software needs to file your return.

Tax estimates — Calculates your estimated quarterly tax payments based on your year-to-date income and expenses. You still pay the IRS directly at eftps.gov.

Tax filing integration — Use Money Pro reports with ZenBusiness Tax Services powered by April. Depending on your product and entity type, April-powered tax filing or planning can use Money Pro information so you do not have to re-enter the same bookkeeping data manually.

What Money Pro Is Not

Money Pro is bookkeeping software — not full accounting software like QuickBooks. It does not handle:
- Inventory tracking
- Payroll (use ADP or another payroll service; see Tracking Payroll Expenses in Money Pro and Track Contractor Payments, W-9s, and 1099s in Money Pro)
- Full chart-of-accounts customization, advanced journal entries, or accountant-managed asset schedules (see Money Pro Categories and Chart of Accounts Quick Reference and Fixed Assets, Loans, Depreciation, and Journal Entries in Money Pro)
- Double-entry accounting / balance sheets (limited)
- Multi-currency invoicing
- Complex S-Corp, partnership, or C-Corp tax workflows without help from a tax professional

For most freelancers, consultants, and small service businesses, Money Pro covers everything needed. For businesses with inventory, payroll, or complex entity structures, you may need additional tools.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does Money Pro cost?

$30/month or $300/year (saves $60 vs. monthly). Both plans include all features. No long-term contract, cancel anytime. See Money Pro Pricing.

Is Money Pro included in my ZenBusiness formation plan?

Some formation and compliance bundles include Money Pro. Check your Subscriptions tab in Account Settings to see what's included in your plan.

Does Money Pro file my taxes for me?

Money Pro doesn't file your taxes by itself — it organizes your records and generates the reports you need to file. ZenBusiness Tax Services powered by April can use Money Pro information for supported tax filing and planning workflows, or you can export reports for your own accountant.

Should I use Money Pro if I already use 1-800Accountant ClientBooks?

If ClientBooks is already working for your bookkeeping and your 1-800Accountant team uses it, you may not need to run both systems. Money Pro is an alternative bookkeeping tool that integrates more closely with April-powered ZenBusiness tax services. For the full comparison, see Money Pro, 1-800Accountant ClientBooks, and April Tax.

Can I use Money Pro on my phone?

Yes — the ZenBusiness mobile app on iOS and Android includes Money Pro access. The mobile app is especially useful for mileage tracking (logging trips immediately after each drive). Receipt upload is only available on the web dashboard, not in the mobile app.
