Service Business Payment Processing

You Finished the Job 3 Weeks Ago. You Still Haven't Been Paid.

Service businesses lose money two ways: clients who pay late and clients who don't show up. ClickWerxs fixes both. Text-to-pay invoicing gets you paid the same day — the customer taps a link and pays from their phone. Appointment deposits lock in bookings and eliminate no-shows. Recurring billing automates maintenance contracts. And interchange-plus pricing saves you $400-$800/month compared to Square.

Late Payments and No-Shows Are Killing Your Revenue

The average service business waits 23 days to get paid after completing a job. For HVAC contractors, it's worse — 30-45 days. Meanwhile, your materials are already purchased and your crew is already paid. And no-shows? A salon with 4 no-shows per week at $75 average is losing $15,600/year in revenue that walked out the door. Text-to-pay and appointment deposits change the equation.

Tools That Get You Paid Faster

Text-to-Pay Invoicing

Finish the job, send a text with a secure payment link. The customer taps, pays from their phone, and you're funded next day. Average time to payment: under 2 hours. No chasing checks, no 'I'll mail it,' no 30-day AR aging.

Mobile & On-Site Payments

Accept payments at the customer's location with wireless terminals and mobile card readers. Tap, dip, and swipe at the kitchen table, the driveway, or the salon chair. LTE connected — no WiFi needed.

Appointment Deposits

Collect deposits at booking to lock in the appointment. Customers enter a card that gets charged if they no-show. Reduces no-shows by 60% and guarantees you're compensated for held time slots.

Recurring Billing

Automate monthly charges for maintenance contracts, memberships, cleaning schedules, and subscription services. Reduce manual billing and guarantee predictable monthly revenue.

Cash Discount Programs

Pass processing fees to card-paying customers. Popular with HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and auto repair. On a $2,000 AC install, that's $60+ your customer covers instead of you.

Customer Card-on-File

Store customer cards securely for repeat visits, ongoing service agreements, and balance payments. Build repeat business with stored profiles — one-tap recharge for regular clients.

Get Paid Before You Leave the Driveway

You just finished a $1,200 HVAC repair. Old way: hand them an invoice, hope they mail a check, chase it for 3 weeks. New way: tap 'send invoice' on your phone, customer gets a text, they pay in 30 seconds, money arrives tomorrow. Text-to-pay invoicing isn't a convenience — it's a cash flow transformation. Service businesses using text-to-pay collect 85%+ of payments within 24 hours.

  • Send invoice via text in 10 seconds from your phone
  • Customer pays in under 60 seconds — no app, no login
  • Funds arrive next day — no 23-day wait
  • Automatic receipt sent to customer and your records

No-Shows Cost You $15K+ a Year. Deposits Fix That.

Every empty appointment slot is revenue you can't recover. Appointment deposits change customer behavior: when they've put skin in the game, they show up. Collect a deposit at booking — $25 for a salon visit, $100 for an HVAC call, $200 for an auto repair estimate. If they no-show, you keep the deposit per your cancellation policy. If they show up, it's applied to the final bill.

  • Collect deposits at booking via text, email, or your website
  • Deposit auto-applies to the final payment
  • No-show? Charge the stored card per your cancellation policy
  • Reduces no-shows by 60% across service industries
