- Customers pay by card through Stripe
- Send a reminder email from the invoice if it is still unpaid

Collect Customer Ratings
Early accessTradeCrew rates a job on six dimensions instead of one star score. Ratings are in early access, so parts of this are still being built.
- Customers rate 6 dimensions: Quality, Honesty, Reliability, Communication, Cleanliness, and Fairness of Price
- A weighted composite score is calculated for you. Quality and honesty count most
- "Would hire again?" is tracked separately as a yes or no
- You can reply to every review
- TradeCrew does not send rating requests automatically yet
What TradeCrew does not do yet
We would rather you hear it here than find out on a job. This is what is not built.
Working offline
TradeCrew needs a connection. Quotes and customers created without one are not synced yet.
Deposits and payment terms
An invoice is the full accepted quote. There are no deposit, due-date, or payment-terms fields yet.
Text messages and push alerts
TradeCrew does not text your customers, and it does not alert you when a customer accepts a quote.
Automatic ratings and public profiles
Rating requests are not sent automatically yet, and there are no public contractor profiles or score lookups.
