You're greenlit
You get a ping and the deposit goes into your Stripe account, which pays it out to your bank. Book them in, then ask for the balance from the same page when you're done.
Who it's for
For trades
Plumbers, electricians, joiners, builders, decorators, gardeners, cleaners. Get the deposit before you buy materials, and stop losing evenings to “just checking you got my quote?”

- Polite automatic reminders if they go quiet
- Ask for the balance when the job's done
- VAT, GST or sales tax added at the rate you set, in your currency

Questions
- Does my customer need an account?
- No. They just open the link.
- Where does the money go?
- Into your own Stripe account. Stripe then pays it into your bank on a regular schedule, usually a few working days later. Setting up Stripe takes a few minutes and Greenlit walks you through it. You can also show your bank details instead.
- Is accepting online binding?
- Your customer accepts your quote and your terms, and Greenlit records their name and the date and time, the same as signing a paper quote. Your own terms decide the details, like refunds on deposits.
- Which countries, currencies and languages does it work in?
- Over 30 countries and 21 currencies, including the UK, Ireland, the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and most of Europe, in 10 languages. VAT, GST or sales tax is added at the rate you set.
- Can I use it with my accounts software?
- Yes. Greenlit Pro links to Xero, QuickBooks and FreeAgent, so each job becomes an invoice with its payments recorded. Anyone can download their quotes as a spreadsheet for other software.
