TradePay

For tradespeople

Estimate it.
Invoice it. Get paid.

Write the estimate at the kitchen table, turn it into an invoice with one tap, and email a branded PDF — with your payment links and a scannable QR code on it — before you pull out of the driveway.

What it does

Built for the truck, not the back office

No accounts to make, no server to trust, no monthly bookkeeping ritual. Open it, write the work down, send it.

01

One tap, estimate to invoice

The same document becomes an invoice when the customer says yes — no retyping. Estimates carry an expiry date and flag themselves when it passes.

02

Your name on the paperwork

Your logo, address, numbering (INV-1042), and standard terms print on every PDF. Run more than one company from the same app, each with its own branding.

03

Payment links and QR codes

Zelle, Venmo, PayPal, and Cash App details ride along on the invoice — the QR code carries the exact balance due, and it's drawn on your device, not fetched from anyone.

04

Deposits, partials, and balances

Record the deposit check and the final payment separately. TradePay keeps the running balance and stamps the invoice PAID when it's covered.

05

Send the whole packet

Attach your liability certificate, workers' comp, and license to the same email, and generate a filled, signed W-9 when a builder asks for one.

06

Know who owes you

Billed, collected, and outstanding for any period, plus receivables aged into 30 / 60 / 90-day buckets so the follow-up calls write themselves.

Details that save the callback

The small stuff, handled

A price list you build once

Save the work you quote every week — service call, tear-out, per-square-foot labor — with prices and descriptions. Favorite the ones you use daily and tap them into a document.

Clients from your contacts

Import a customer straight from Contacts, or save one as you type. Private notes stay private — they never appear on anything you send.

Everywhere you work

Write it on the phone in the driveway, tidy it up on the iPad, print from the Mac. iCloud keeps all three in step, and it works offline when there's no signal.

Straight from Floored

Finished a takeoff in Floored? Send the customer and measured materials over and TradePay builds the estimate with your prices already in it.

Readable at arm's length

Set the text size and typeface app-wide, so the app suits your eyes on a bright driveway. Your printed invoices stay exactly as they were.

Archive, don't delete

File finished work out of the way. It stays searchable and still counts in your reporting history — it just stops nagging you from the top of the list.

On the job

What it looks like

Real screens from a real week's work.

TradePay on iPhone: the invoice list, with unpaid invoices at the top showing orange balance-due pills and a paid one marked PAID in green
Unpaid invoices float to the top with the balance still owed. Paid ones go green and get out of the way.
TradePay's document editor on iPhone: line items grouped under Living Room & Hall and Stairs headings, with subtotal, tax, total, and a 30% deposit
Group the work into sections the customer can follow. Tax, discount, total, and deposit add up as you type.
TradePay's reports on iPhone: billed, collected, and outstanding totals above an accounts receivable table aged into 30, 60, and 90-day buckets
Billed, collected, outstanding — and exactly who has been sitting on your invoice for 60 days.

The deliverable

What your customer gets

One page, your branding, and a QR code that opens their payment app with the balance already filled in.

A finished TradePay invoice PDF: company logo and address, INVOICE banner, Bill To block, itemized table with quantities and unit prices, payment terms, total, and Venmo and Cash App QR codes labelled Pay Online
INV-1042 exactly as it goes out — generated on your device, and stamped PAID across the page once the money lands.

Privacy

Nobody's watching. Literally nobody.

TradePay has no analytics, no advertising, no trackers, no login, and no server of ours to phone home to. Your invoices, customers, and tax details live on your devices and in your own iCloud account, where we can't reach them. Read the privacy policy — it's short, because there's little to disclose.
