The problem

Big tickets, fleet accounts, and customers waiting on keys.

Repair tickets run high. Fleets want invoices. Customers want their keys now. Your payment setup should handle all three without backing up the counter.

Pay by text before pickup

Send the final invoice as a payment link. The customer pays from their phone, so the keys are ready when they walk in.

Fleet cards

Accept WEX and Voyager fleet cards along with Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express.

Fleet and dealer invoicing

Invoices, saved payment methods, and ACH through the PayBright Gateway or Hyfin, for fleets and dealers who pay on account. Some business cards qualify for lower rates when invoice details are sent with the payment.

Counter checkout

Clover, or a PAX, Dejavoo, Ingenico, or Equinox terminal at the service desk for estimates, deposits, and final payment.

Deposits on big jobs

Collect a deposit by payment link before parts are ordered.

$0-fee options

Dual pricing or cash discount, so card customers cover the card cost on large repair tickets.

Counter terminals we set up: PAX A35, Dejavoo Z8, Ingenico Lane 3000, and FD150. See all terminals →

Pricing options

Three ways to price a repair shop.

Repair tickets are large, so the card cost on each one adds up. Many shops offset it with dual pricing or a cash discount. Shops that bill fleets and dealers often prefer interchange-plus. We price both from your statements.

$0-fee option

Dual pricing

Two prices on every ticket: one for cash, one for card. Card customers cover the card cost. The card price applies to all cards, debit included.

Example: a repair with a $750.00 cash price shows a $780.00 card price, a 4% difference. This is an example, not a quote. Your card price is set when we set up your program.

How dual pricing works →

$0-fee option

Cash discount

One posted price, with a discount for customers who pay cash. We set up the signage and receipts so it's clear at checkout.

Cash discount vs. dual pricing →

One price for everyone

Interchange-plus

You pay what the card networks charge, plus a fixed markup you can see on every statement. Your customers see one price.
