SolidInvoice vs Tremendous: at a glance
What is SolidInvoice?
SolidInvoice 3.1.3 patches payment settling and clears 12 Symfony advisories.
SolidInvoice, the self-hosted invoicing app, is in a patch cycle on 3.1. The 29 October trio brought custom invoice templates, invitation expiry and a fixed upgrade path with migrations at startup or as a Helm pre-upgrade job. 3.1.3 follows with fixes: invoices paid through the API or MCP are only marked paid once the payment settles, the revenue chart counts each month once, and a Symfony bump clears 12 security advisories.
What is Tremendous?
Tremendous now lets senders cancel a digital reward within 30 minutes
Tremendous sends rewards and payouts. Recent changes: orders can be cancelled and refunded up to 30 minutes after sending, Canadian teams can fund accounts in CAD, and the catalog added 65+ local gift cards across nine countries with limited payout options. Text-message delivery ended for Austria and Finland under local carrier rules. Earlier came Cash App instant payouts and co-branded Virtual Visa pages.

SolidInvoice
5.0FINANCE
SolidInvoice 3.1.3 patches payment settling and clears 12 Symfony advisories.
◆ Current state
SolidInvoice, the self-hosted invoicing app, is in a patch cycle on 3.1. The 29 October trio brought custom invoice templates, invitation expiry and a fixed upgrade path with migrations at startup or as a Helm pre-upgrade job. 3.1.3 follows with fixes: invoices paid through the API or MCP are only marked paid once the payment settles, the revenue chart counts each month once, and a Symfony bump clears 12 security advisories.
◆ Where it's heading
After the large 3.0 release in June, work has moved to hardening: upgrade paths, packaging (Snap, static PHP builds) and correctness in payments and reporting. The mention of MCP payments shows AI-agent access is already wired into billing, though the entries don't detail it.
◆ Prediction
Expect more 3.1.x patches on packaging and payment edge cases; the entries don't signal what 3.2 will contain.
Tremendous
5.0FINANCE

◆ Current state
Tremendous sends rewards and payouts. Recent changes: orders can be cancelled and refunded up to 30 minutes after sending, Canadian teams can fund accounts in CAD, and the catalog added 65+ local gift cards across nine countries with limited payout options. Text-message delivery ended for Austria and Finland under local carrier rules. Earlier came Cash App instant payouts and co-branded Virtual Visa pages.
◆ Where it's heading
Coverage is expanding by currency and country, while controls for senders, from read-only API keys to cancellation, keep accumulating.
◆ Prediction
More local-currency funding or regional catalog batches look likely, following CAD and the nine-country addition.
