Rate Card Maker

Turn the rate card you send to clients into an interactive flipbook that opens in one tap.

Built for agencies, freelancers, publishers and media sales teams quoting other businesses. You pay nothing for any of it, no ads sit beside your fees, no watermark crosses them, and how many rate cards you keep live is entirely up to you.

How to Create a Rate Card Flipbook

Building your card with Flipbooks AI takes minutes and no design skill. Start with the rate card PDF you already send, whatever it was made in. Upload it and the tool builds an interactive flipbook preview straight away. Choose a page turn style, add your logo and brand colours, drop in enquiry links beside each package, and decide whether the card is public or password protected. Check it on your own phone the way a buyer will, then publish with one click. Copy the link, paste it into your reply, and the prospect can read your rates before they have finished reading your email.

What Is a Rate Card and Who Sends One?

A rate card is the document a buyer asks for when they want to know what you charge. An agency lists day rates, monthly retainers and project bands. A freelance designer lists a logo package, a website build and an hourly rate for anything outside scope. A magazine, a newsletter or a podcast lists ad slots by size, position and run length. Flipbooks AI takes that PDF and turns it into an interactive flipbook with pages that turn like a printed card. The buyer taps a link, sees your rates laid out exactly as you designed them, and taps again to send an enquiry. There is nothing to download and nothing to unzip, so your prices never sit unopened at the bottom of an inbox.

Rate Cards This Tool Covers

The tool suits any list of business rates. Creative agencies publish day rates by discipline and retainer bands by scope. Freelancers set out packages, hourly rates and rush fees. Magazines and newspapers list display sizes, positions and insert costs. Newsletters and podcasts price sponsorship by slot and audience. Production companies quote crew, kit and edit days. Consultancies list engagement types. PR firms show monthly programmes. Whatever shape your pricing takes, it becomes a flipbook a buyer can move through without asking you a single question first.

Put Your Studio Branding on Every Page

Put Your Studio Branding on Every Page

A rate card is a sales document, so it should look like the rest of your work. Flipbooks AI lets you set your logo, your brand colours, the background and the navigation style, so the card sits comfortably beside your website and your deck. Multiple language support means an agency with offices in two countries can publish the same rates in both. Consistency here does quiet work: a buyer comparing three suppliers reads care in the details, and a card that looks considered makes the fee on it easier to accept.

Why Send Your Rate Card as a Flipbook

A rate card gets forwarded. It goes from the person who asked to a finance lead, then to whoever signs. Every forward is a chance for a PDF to arrive broken, land in a spam filter or open on a phone at four percent zoom. A flipbook link survives all of that. It opens in the browser, keeps your layout intact, and looks the same to the fifth person who sees it as it did to the first. You can also change a number without recalling anything: update the file, republish, and the link everyone already has shows the new rate. That alone saves the awkward email that begins with a request to ignore the version sent on Tuesday.

Help Buyers Find Your Rates in Search

Plenty of buyers start by searching rather than asking. A rate card flipbook can be set up so search engines index it, which puts your pricing in front of people already looking for what you sell. Embedding it on your site adds real content to the page and keeps visitors reading for longer. Give it a clear title and the words buyers genuinely type, like your service, your sector and your city. A document you built for one client request quietly keeps working for every prospect who never got around to sending the email.

Interactive Parts That Turn a Rate Into a Booking

Interactive Parts That Turn a Rate Into a Booking

The gap between reading a price and starting a conversation is where most rate cards fail. Flipbooks AI lets you close it on the page. Put a book a call button next to the package it belongs to. Link a case study video to the retainer that produced the result. Add a form for a custom quote when a brief does not fit a band. Link out to your terms, your onboarding timeline and your availability calendar. Add a contents page so a buyer with fifteen minutes can find the one section that matters. Small additions like these are the difference between a card that gets read and a card that gets answered.

Features Built for Agencies and Media Sellers

Flipbooks AI gives you the pieces a rate card needs to do its job. Put a clickable enquiry link beside every package so a buyer who likes the middle tier can act on the same page they read it. Embed a sixty second showreel or a case study video next to the retainer that produced it. Add a table of contents so a media buyer jumps straight to display, sponsorship or newsletter placements. Attach a downloadable spec sheet with file formats, deadlines and dimensions. Make the content searchable so a reader typing retainer lands on the right page. Every one of these is included at no cost, with no watermark across your pricing and no cap on how many pages your card runs to.

Send Different Rates to Different Buyers

Very few sellers have one price for everyone. Flipbooks AI makes multiple versions painless. Publish an agency rate card and a direct client card. Keep a partner rate for resellers and a standard rate for everyone else. Give a national buyer different placement pricing from a regional one. Each version gets its own link and its own analytics, so you can see which audience reads furthest and which one bounces at the first number. Nobody sees a rate that was not meant for them, and you never have to remember which attachment you sent in March.

Get the Rate Card Approved Before It Goes Out

Get the Rate Card Approved Before It Goes Out

Pricing usually needs a second pair of eyes. A partner signs off the day rate, a finance lead checks the retainer maths, a sales director wants the packages ordered differently. Flipbooks AI fits that. Share a preview link so reviewers read the card exactly as a client will, on the device a client will use. Keep last season alongside the new draft while the decision is being made. When everyone agrees, publish. The approval trail stays in one link instead of six attachments named final and final revised.

Built for Business Rates, Not Retail Prices

This tool is deliberately aimed at business to business selling. If you are pricing products for shoppers, our digital price list generator is the better fit, and a hair or beauty studio pricing services for walk in clients is served by the salon price list maker. A rate card is a different document with a different reader: someone with a budget, a brief and a shortlist of three suppliers. It has to justify a number rather than just state one, which is why room for a case study, a client list and a scope note matters more here than a neat grid of items. Flipbooks AI handles a one page freelance card and a forty page media pack with equal ease.

Cheaper Than Printing and Reprinting Rates

Printed rate cards have a specific problem: they are wrong the moment you raise a price. Design, print and postage all cost money, and every change means the box in the cupboard is now a box of scrap. Flipbooks AI removes the whole cycle. Publish as many versions as you like at no cost, adjust a rate the morning it changes, and reach a buyer in another country as easily as one down the road. You also get engagement data that a printed card could never give you, which is the part most sellers miss once they have had it.

Readable for Every Buyer on Your List

Readable for Every Buyer on Your List

Somewhere on your prospect list is a buyer who uses a screen reader, and a rate card they cannot read is a deal you never hear about. Flipbooks AI covers the basics. Screen reader support means the packages and prices get read aloud properly. Keyboard navigation lets anyone who does not use a mouse move through the pages. High contrast text and uncluttered layouts help every reader squinting at a phone in bright light. None of this costs you anything, and it widens the group of people who can say yes.

Reads Well on the Phone a Buyer Opens It On

Rate cards are read in odd places. On a train, between meetings, on the phone of a marketing manager who is walking to another building. Flipbooks AI keeps your card sharp on every screen size. The layout reflows for phones and tablets while the page turns stay smooth. A buyer swipes between packages, pinches to zoom in on a scope table, and taps once to open your enquiry form or calendar. It all runs in the browser, so there is no app to install and no moment where a prospect decides your pricing is not worth the trouble of opening.

Opens Fast on a Weak Office Connection

Corporate networks are often slower than the one you built the card on. Flipbooks AI tunes every rate card to load quickly even on patchy connections and locked down office wifi. Smart compression keeps your case study photography and rate tables crisp while shrinking the file. The first pages appear straight away while heavier images finish loading behind them. A buyer who taps your link during a meeting sees your prices while the meeting is still happening, which is the only moment that matters.

Works With the Tools Your Team Already Uses

There is nothing new to learn. Export your rate card PDF from Adobe InDesign, Canva, Figma, Google Slides or Keynote and upload it as it is. Add clickable links to your CRM enquiry form, your scheduling tool, your proposal software or a simple mailto address. Drop the embed code into your website, your client portal or your proposal deck so the current rates always live in one place. The flipbook fits around your existing pipeline instead of asking you to rebuild it.

Flipbooks AI costs nothing, and the parts you actually need are not held back for a paid tier. Plenty of tools stamp their own logo across the page where your fee sits, which is a strange thing to show a buyer weighing you against two competitors. Here you get unlimited pages, unlimited rate cards, clean pages carrying only your own branding, and full access to customization, sharing and analytics at no charge. A studio of two can present its rates as well as an agency with a design department, which is exactly the point.

Keep an Archive of Every Rate Card Season

Old rate cards are worth more than they look. Flipbooks AI lets you keep every version you have published, so you can see what you charged two years ago, how the packages have changed, and which structure held up best. When a former client comes back, you can check what they were quoted before instead of guessing. When it is time to raise prices, you have the history in front of you. Nothing is stored in a drawer, and nothing has to be rebuilt from scratch next January.

What Agencies and Publishers Say About the Rate Card Maker

We run a nine person design studio and our rate card used to be a PDF nobody could open on a phone. Now it is a link, and the analytics changed how we sell. Seeing that buyers spend most of their time on the retainer page told us to lead with retainers instead of project fees, and our average engagement value went up because of it.

Marketing team
Marketing team

Product catalogs

I sell advertising for a regional food magazine. Media buyers ask for the rate card at four in the afternoon and want it before they finish for the day. Sending a link that opens instantly, with the booking form next to each slot, has taken days out of the process. No watermark either, which matters when you are asking someone for money.

Studio owner
Studio owner

Client lookbooks

As a freelance copywriter I always felt awkward about my rates document. Building it as a flipbook with two case studies before the price page made the whole conversation easier. Clients stopped asking me to justify the day rate, because the card had already done it by the time they got there.

School office
School office

Newsletters and programmes

We keep four versions of our rate card: agency, direct, partner and renewal. Before this we were tracking which attachment went to whom in a spreadsheet. Now each one is a separate link with its own numbers, and updating a price takes about a minute instead of an afternoon of resending files.

Keep Confidential Rates Behind a Password

Keep Confidential Rates Behind a Password

Some numbers are not for general circulation. A negotiated rate for a long standing client, a partner discount, an early sponsor price for an event that has not launched. Flipbooks AI protects those with password access, so only the person you quoted can open the card. You can also turn off downloading so a private rate does not travel further than the conversation it belongs to. Secure hosting keeps the file where you put it, and you decide who gets the password and when.

Create Your Rate Card

Send the Rate Card the Moment It Is Asked For

Most rate cards are requested by someone who wants them now. Flipbooks AI gives you an instant share link to paste into a reply, a LinkedIn message or a proposal email. Embed the flipbook on your services page so a buyer who found you through search can read your rates without asking anyone. Print a QR code for a trade stand or a leave behind card. When a set of rates is confidential, put a password on it so only the client you quoted can open the file, and share the password separately.

Details That Keep a Buyer Reading to the Price

Buyers rarely abandon a rate card at the price. They abandon it earlier, at the page that failed to explain why the price is what it is. Flipbooks AI gives you room to fix that. Put a short client list and two results before the packages. Add a scope box that says plainly what is and is not included, so nobody has to email to ask. Use a comparison spread that shows what changes between tiers. Add sharing buttons so the person who liked it can pass it to the person who signs. A card built this way answers the objections before they are raised, and arrives at the number with the case already made.

ApplicationRatingUnlimited CreditsUsage RatingDescription
10/10Yes1

Flipbooks AI publishes unlimited rate cards at no cost. Your fees carry no watermark, an enquiry link can sit beside every package, the reader data tells you what was looked at, and the whole thing behaves properly on the device a buyer opens it on. Made for agencies, freelancers, publishers and anyone whose next sale begins with a question about price.

FlipHTML5

5.2/10No2

FlipHTML5 holds one of the deepest template collections in this category, and its page turn feels solid on a desktop. What a seller notices is the free tier: its own branding stays on the document, and the statistics you want after quoting someone are reserved for subscribers.

Issuu

7.1/10No3

Issuu is a publishing platform with real reach and a familiar reader, which suits titles that want to be browsed. Free publishing puts Issuu branding around your document and limits uploads, so a rate card sent to a buyer usually needs a subscription first.

Publuu

8.3/10No4

Publuu is fast to set up and pays real attention to who opened a shared link, which fits a sales document nicely. Detailed tracking, longer files and the option to drop its branding are things you buy rather than things you get.

Canva

6.4/10No5

For designing the card itself Canva is hard to fault, and its layouts help a small studio look organised without hiring anyone. Delivery is the weaker half: readers scroll instead of turning pages, and you learn nothing about what they stopped on.

Heyzine

7.8/10No6

Heyzine gets you from PDF to something presentable in about ten minutes, which is exactly what a freelancer under pressure wants. Free accounts hold only a few live documents and mark them, while the styling controls belong to the paid tiers.

Flipsnack

6.9/10No7

Flipsnack lets you assemble a document inside the tool instead of importing a finished one, and its interactive blocks are well made. The free level is narrow, and both unbranded pages and useful statistics arrive with a monthly charge.

Adobe InDesign

8.1/10No8

Nothing here matches InDesign for typographic control over a pricing table, and most well made rate cards begin in it. It stops at the export, though: nothing is hosted, there is no link to send, and no record of what happened next.

Google Docs

6.5/10No9

A rate card in Google Docs is easy to share and easy to keep current, which is why so many freelancers start there. It looks like a working document rather than a sales one, and a buyer comparing suppliers notices the difference immediately.

PDF Email Attachment

7.6/10No10

Everyone understands an attachment and it costs nothing to send. What you give up is everything after the click: no turning pages, no enquiry button, no fixing a figure you got wrong, and complete silence about whether it opened.

Special Rate Cards for Campaigns and Renewals

Special Rate Cards for Campaigns and Renewals

Not every card is the annual one. Build a launch offer for a new service, a seasonal package for a quiet quarter, a renewal card for clients coming up to the end of a term, or a bundle for an event you are sponsoring. Each gets its own flipbook, its own link and its own numbers, so you learn which offers land and which ones never got past the first page. Reacting to a slow month becomes a morning of work rather than a project, and your pricing stays a live tool instead of a file you update once a year.

Sending a rate card usually ends in silence you cannot interpret. Flipbooks AI gives you analytics that show how many people opened the card, which pages held them longest and where they stopped. If a prospect spent four minutes on the retainer page and never reached the project bands, you know what to lead with when you follow up. If nobody gets past page two, the problem is page two. Over a quarter this tells you which package sells itself, which one needs explaining, and which one you can quietly retire.

Devices and browsers keep changing, and a rate card you publish today should still open cleanly in three years. Flipbooks AI keeps pace with current web standards and the phones your buyers actually carry. Improvements arrive automatically, so your cards gain capability without anyone on your team doing the work. Everything is hosted, so there is no software to maintain and no plugin to break. The link you paste into an email today keeps working long after the campaign that prompted it is finished.

Frequently Asked
Rate Card Maker

What is a rate card flipbook?

It is your rate card PDF turned into an interactive document with real page turns. Flipbooks AI does this for free, so a buyer taps one link and reads your day rates, retainers or ad slots on any device, with clickable enquiry links on the page and no app to install.

Is the rate card maker really free to use?

Yes. Flipbooks AI is completely free with no hidden costs, no watermarks and no page limits. Branding, sharing, password protection and analytics are all included, for every rate card and every version you publish.

How is this different from your price list tools?

The price list tools are aimed at retail and at salon services, where the reader is a shopper or a client choosing a treatment. A rate card is business to business: the reader has a budget and a shortlist, so this tool leaves room for scope notes, case studies and package comparisons.

Can I put a booking or enquiry link next to a package?

Yes. You can add clickable links anywhere on the page, so a call booking, a quote form, your CRM or a plain email address can sit right beside the price it belongs to. You can also embed video, so a case study plays next to the retainer that produced it.

Can I keep a negotiated rate private?

Yes. Any rate card can be password protected, so only the client you quoted can open it, and downloading can be switched off so the file does not travel further. Publish a public card and a private one side by side, each with its own link.

Will I know whether the buyer opened it?

Yes. Analytics show how many people opened the card, which pages they spent time on and where they stopped reading. That is usually enough to tell you what to lead with when you follow up, instead of guessing at the silence.

How many pages can a rate card have?

There is no page limit. Publish a single sheet of freelance rates or a full media pack with audience data, case studies, specifications and deadlines. The flipbook handles both, and neither costs anything.

What happens when my rates change?

Update the file and republish. Everyone who already has the link sees the new rates immediately, so there is nothing to resend and no old number circulating in an inbox somewhere. The link itself never changes.
