Choose the business workflow

Auto Repair Shops

Repair orders, estimates, additional work, deposits, text-to-pay, pickup, and refunds.

Auto Body Shops

The insurer's payment is only part of the repair order. See what card costs do to deductibles, customer-pay work, deposits, supplements, and the final balance before changing the counter.

Vehicle Wrap Shops

A wrap sale is often paid in stages while design, print, material, scheduling, and installation move on different clocks. Build the payment choice into that sequence before the deposit arrives.

Window Tint Shops

Tint shops move from quick appointments to high-ticket tint, PPF, and coating packages. The payment system has to work for the counter, the booking link, mobile work, and the warranty record.

Medical Spas

Med spa revenue arrives through single treatments, packages, deposits, memberships, retail products, and financing. The payment setup has to keep those records separate and give the client a clear choice before money moves.

Wellness Centers

Wellness centers often collect through appointments, classes, packages, memberships, events, and corporate accounts. A useful payment plan separates each channel, then fixes the records that connect a booking to a charge.
