United Kingdom note

UK prices are in GBP and exclude VAT; ServiceM8 issues reverse charge invoices, so VAT-registered businesses account for the VAT to HMRC themselves. It connects to Xero and QuickBooks Online (no Sage or FreeAgent listed). Its UK pages list no CIS, gas safety certificate or payroll features, so those need separate tools.
