For contractors & tradespeople
Lock in the job with a deposit, send a clean itemized invoice when the work is done, and let customers pay by card or bank transfer from their phone, all on your own Stripe account.
Contractors carry the risk on every job: materials bought on your card, a crew on the clock, and a customer who “will mail a check Friday.” CrexiPay gives you a simple way to get money moving before you load the truck. Collect a deposit to cover materials, track exactly what’s still owed, and bill the balance with one tap at the final walkthrough. No software to learn, no developer, and if you don’t have a Stripe account yet, we set one up for you.
What you get
Ask for a percentage or a fixed amount up front so materials and scheduling are covered before you commit a crew.
When the job’s signed off, send the remaining balance in one tap. The customer, amount and job details carry over automatically.
List labor, materials and fixtures line by line, add a discount or sales tax, and send a branded invoice the customer can actually read.
Customers pay by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or bank transfer (ACH) from their phone, which helps on larger jobs where card fees add up.
Get an instant alert on your phone when a payment lands, and your customer gets a receipt automatically. No chasing, no guessing.
Every payment settles to your own Stripe account and pays out to your bank on Stripe’s normal schedule. We never hold your funds.
How it works
Sign up and connect Stripe, or let us create a Stripe account for your business as part of getting started.
Enter the job total and the deposit you need. The customer gets a branded link and pays by card or bank.
Your dashboard shows the deposit paid and the balance still owed on every open job.
At completion, bill the remaining balance with one tap and get paid before you leave the site.
Common questions
It depends on the trade, the job size and your local rules. Many contractors ask for enough to cover materials and scheduling, often 10% to 50%. Some states cap residential deposits, so check your state’s contractor licensing rules. CrexiPay lets you set any percentage or fixed amount per job.
Yes. Alongside cards and digital wallets, CrexiPay turns on ACH bank payments where Stripe supports them, which costs far less than a card on a large invoice. Your customer simply picks how they want to pay.
No. You don’t need a website or any code. If you don’t have a Stripe account yet, we set one up for you during signup; if you already have one, you connect it in a couple of clicks. Prefer paper for now? Try our free contractor invoice template.
