Get paid on the spot — by card

Text your customer an invoice the moment you finish the job. They tap the link, pay by card from their phone, and the money lands in your bank through Stripe. No more chasing checks, no awkward Venmo-from-a-stranger, no waiting around to get paid.

How getting paid works

Text the invoice, get paid

When the job is done, send the invoice by text. Your customer gets a link to a clean hosted invoice page with the line items laid out — no app to download, no account to create.

Customers pay by card

They tap the link and pay by card right from their phone. No checks to deposit, no cash to count, and no chasing someone down for a Venmo handle after they have left.

Money goes straight to your bank

Payments run through Stripe and land in your own bank account. You connect your account once during setup and Houseler handles the rest of the flow for every invoice.

Receipts and records, handled

Every payment is recorded against the invoice and your customer gets a receipt automatically. Your books stay clean and up to date without extra data entry on your end.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about getting paid with Houseler.

How do my customers pay?

They get a text with a link to their invoice. They open it, enter their card, and pay — all from their phone. There is nothing for them to download and no account to set up.

When do I get the money?

Payments are deposited into the bank account you connect, on Stripe’s standard payout schedule. Once you are set up, it happens automatically after each payment without any extra steps from you.

What are the fees?

Card payments are powered by Stripe, so Stripe’s standard per-transaction processing fee applies to each payment. You can see current rates on Stripe’s pricing page. There is nothing extra to install in Houseler to start accepting cards.

Do I need a separate payments account?

You connect a Stripe account to Houseler — Stripe is what securely moves the money to your bank. If you do not already have one, you can create it during setup in a few minutes.

How does my customer get the invoice?

Houseler sends it by text as a link to a hosted invoice page. They can open it on any phone, review the line items, and pay by card on the same page.
