A web design contract, ready to sign in two minutes
Fill in nine details and download a pre-written contract for your web design work as a ready-to-sign PDF. It's built for freelancers and agencies who would rather start the project than wrestle with legal templates. Everything happens in your browser, so your client's details stay on your computer.
What this tool does
This is a free contract generator for web designers. You type in the basics — who you are, who the client is, the price, and when payment is due — and it builds a clean agreement you can download as a PDF and sign.
The contract covers the things that usually cause trouble later: what the fee includes, when invoices are due, what happens if a client pays late, and who owns the work once it’s paid for. Hand it to a client as it is, or open the PDF and adjust any clause before you send it.
Why web designers use it
A contract that takes a couple of minutes, not an afternoon of editing someone else's template.
Ready in about two minutes
Nine fields and a download. No account, and no template files to hunt down.
Covers late payment
Set a due date and a late fee, and the contract spells out what a client owes if they miss it.
Your details stay private
The PDF is built in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to us or stored anywhere.
Add your own logo
Drop in a PNG or JPG and it sits at the top of the contract, so the document looks like yours.
Free, with no catch
No watermark on the PDF and no limit on how many contracts you generate.
Yours to edit
The download is a normal PDF and the wording is plain English, so you can change a clause before you sign.
What is a web design contract?
A web design contract is a simple written agreement between you and your client that says what you’ll build, what it costs, and when you’ll be paid. It turns a verbal “sounds good” into something both sides can point back to later.
It doesn’t need to be intimidating. A good one is short and readable, and it quietly settles the questions that cause most freelance disputes: what’s included, what counts as an extra, when invoices are due, and who owns the finished site once the bill is paid.
Why send a contract first
You get paid on time
A clear due date and a late fee give a client a real reason not to drag payment out.
Scope creep has a limit
Once "the project" is written down, "can you also just…" becomes a conversation about extra cost, not a free add-on.
Both sides know the plan
Fewer awkward misunderstandings later, because the price, timeline, and deliverables were agreed up front.
You look like a professional
Sending a contract signals you've done this before and you take the work seriously.
You're covered if it goes wrong
If a client disappears or disputes the bill, you have a signed record of what was agreed.

Why use this instead of a template or a lawyer
Most people reach for a generic template or pay a lawyer. Here's why a quick generator can be the better middle ground for a standard project.
Faster than a blank template
No deleting someone else's placeholder text. You fill nine fields and the wording is already written.
Cheaper than a lawyer
For a small, standard job, a per-project legal fee rarely adds up. This is free.
Private by default
The PDF is built in your browser, so the client details you type are never uploaded or stored.
Yours to adjust
It's a starting point, not a straitjacket. Open the PDF and change any clause before you sign.
