ScanPay

Use case: Tradies & Service Businesses

Collect payment as soon as the job is finished.

Kapiti Home Services puts a ScanPay QR code on its business cards and job flyers. Customers scan, enter the amount and invoice reference, then pay on their own phone while the tradie receives instant confirmation.

Customers pay on their own supported device, so the tradie does not need to carry an EFTPOS terminal, manage cash, or share access to the business bank account.

Buyer-entered amounts for variable invoices

Use one reusable page for completed jobs with different totals. Request an Invoice number, Job number, Service address, Customer name, or other reference and set a maximum transaction amount for additional protection.

Fixed callout fees and $125 hourly labour

Create predefined service choices such as a $125 callout fee or quantity-based labour at $125 per hour. The selected service, quantity, total, and reference remain attached to the transaction.

Apple Pay, Google Pay, and card checkout

The customer pays through supported Stripe checkout methods on their own phone while funds are processed directly into the service business's connected Stripe merchant account.

Receipts, GST, and customer service details

Provide a receipt webpage, formatted receipt email, downloadable PDF, or both page and email. Include the seller identity, support details, reference, line item, amount, GST number, and tax content when applicable.

Instant payment dashboards and device alerts

See the amount, job reference, status, time, fees, and net income as soon as payment succeeds. Live screens and high-priority alerts let tradies or office staff confirm payment without accessing the merchant account.

Signed webhooks for business automation

Send successful payment events to Zapier, Make, n8n, Relay.app, CRMs, accounting workflows, job-management tools, or compatible custom endpoints. HMAC signatures and timestamps help receiving systems verify each event.

Frequently asked questions

How can a tradie collect a payment with ScanPay?

Place the payment QR code on a business card, invoice, flyer, vehicle document, or phone screen. The customer scans it, enters or selects the amount, adds the requested job or invoice reference, and pays on their own device.

Can the customer enter the amount owed?

Yes. A buyer-entered amount page suits variable invoices and completed service work. The business can request a reference such as Invoice number, Job number, Service address, or Customer name and set a maximum transaction amount for additional protection.

Can we publish a fixed callout fee or hourly rate?

Yes. Create a predefined option for a $125 callout fee, or a quantity-based option for labour at $125 per hour. ScanPay calculates the selected quantity before checkout and records the chosen service with the transaction.

Does the tradie need an EFTPOS terminal?

No. The customer uses their own supported phone and payment method. Apple Pay, Google Pay, and supported cards are presented through the connected Stripe checkout while funds are processed directly to the service business merchant account.

Can office staff confirm that a customer has paid?

Yes. Transactions update in ScanPay with the amount, payment status, time, reference, Stripe fee, and net amount. A live dashboard or high-priority device alert can notify the business as soon as payment succeeds.

Can ScanPay send payment data to our other software?

Yes. Enable signed outbound webhooks and send successful payment data to Zapier, Make, n8n, Relay.app, a CRM, accounting workflow, job-management platform, or compatible custom endpoint. Payload signatures and timestamps help the receiving system verify the event.

Can customers receive a receipt?

Yes. Show a receipt page, email a formatted receipt, or provide both. The receipt can include the seller details, payment-page name, customer reference, amount, GST information when applicable, payment method, and downloadable PDF.

Which service businesses can use this?

ScanPay can suit builders, electricians, plumbers, cleaners, gardeners, mobile mechanics, appliance technicians, handymen, consultants, tutors, carers, and other mobile or appointment-based service businesses.
