Pricing
Why inspectors choose integrated payments.
Get paid before you release the report — Release-on-Payment protects your cash flow.
Lower rates than major payment processors — better than Square, Spectora, and Clover for invoice payments.
Traditional or Dual Pay — you choose to absorb fees or pass them on to the customer.
No hardware — send a secure payment link.
Fast deposits — typically next business day.
One workflow — payments, receipts and reports inside inspectagram®.
Flat pricing — same rate for credit and debit, no hidden fees.

FAQs
Questions?
Q1. Do I need a card reader?
No. With Hootie Pay you can send a secure payment link. A physical reader is only needed if you want to offer tap/swipe in-person.
Q2. Is there a dollar limit on tap or QR?
No. Typical inspection fees (about $500–$1,200) clear without limits.
Q3. Is debit cheaper than credit?
No. The same flat rate applies to both debit and credit to keep things simple.
Q4. Can I charge the client the fee?
Yes. You choose whether to pass the processing fee to the client or absorb it yourself.
Q5. Is it secure?
Yes. Payments run through Hootie Pay, which is PCI-compliant with bank-grade encryption and used by thousands of service businesses.
Q6. Do I have to use your processor?
You can use other POS systems; however, only the built-in Hootie Pay unlocks the “release-on-payment” function and is integrated with InspectaHUB.
Q7. I’m in Canada — what’s available today?
You can continue using your existing POS system right now. The integrated Hootie Pay with the report-release-on-payment feature is coming soon to Canada.
