Frequently Asked Questions
How do I avoid disputes regarding the final trench length or depth?
Digital invoices allow you to attach GPS-tagged photos and signed work orders directly to the bill, providing unshakeable proof of work completed to specification before the dirt is even moved.
What's the fastest way to collect for emergency utility repairs?
Sending a digital invoice with an integrated 'Pay Now' button lets you capture payment via credit card or bank transfer right from your phone while you are still on-site, eliminating the 'check is in the mail' excuse.
How can I ensure I don't get stuck with a massive fuel and labor bill on long-term projects?
Use digital invoicing to set up milestone billing; this allows you to trigger automated payment requests for fuel and labor at the end of every work week rather than waiting for the entire project to conclude.
