How it works

Four steps.
Zero invoice anxiety.

The full flow from job creation to payment release — on both sides.

Step one

Tradie creates the job

Set scope, price, and your PayPal email. Get a secure shareable link in seconds.

Step two

Homeowner pays upfront

Funds go into escrow via PayPal. The tradie knows the money is locked in before they start.

Step three

Work gets done

Tradie completes the job and marks it done. No chasing. No awkward conversations.

Step four

Homeowner releases payment

One click approves the work. Funds go straight to the tradie's PayPal. Job closed.

Tradie Receives payout after homeowner approves

Your money doesn't move until you say so.

We hold the homeowner's payment the moment they pay. The tradie knows it's there — so they start with confidence. The homeowner knows it's safe — so they pay without risk.

If there's a dispute, funds stay frozen until it's resolved by our team.

Pricing: 5% platform fee, deducted from the job total before payout. No setup fees. No monthly charges.
