Questions, answered

What tradies ask about getting paid.

Every invoice carries a Pay Now button. Your client taps it and pays by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay straight from their phone, no account to create and no back-and-forth, so the invoice gets settled in a couple of taps.

Payments flow to your bank automatically through Stripe, usually within a couple of business days. You don't have to move anything across or reconcile it by hand.

Yes. Payments run on Stripe, the same platform trusted by millions of businesses worldwide. Card details are handled by Stripe with bank-grade security, Kelpie never sees or stores them.

There's no monthly add-on to switch payments on. You only pay the standard processing fee on the payments you actually take, so quiet months cost you nothing, and there's no lock-in contract.

No. You connect your details once and you're ready to take payments, there's no bank or merchant paperwork to chase and nothing to set up on the side.

Visa, Mastercard and American Express, plus Apple Pay and Google Pay. In Australia your clients can also pay straight from their bank with PayTo, using their bank account or PayID, so they settle up whatever way is quickest for them.

Yes. Send the invoice with its Pay Now link from your phone before you pack up, and the client can pay it there and then, the sooner it's out, the sooner you're paid.

Yes. You can record a payment made any way against an invoice, cash, bank transfer or card. Online payments are just the fastest way to get the money in.

Yes. When a client pays, the payment is recorded against the invoice and flows through to Xero or QuickBooks, so your books stay in sync without double entry.

No. Taking payments is built into Kelpie alongside quoting, jobs and invoicing. You only ever pay the processing fee on payments you take, with no per-feature charge and no lock-in.
