One scheduled treatment, inside and out

An example treatment package. Your business name, colours and wording — you write what a treatment is.

Example figures, not research — put your own in the calculator below. What matters is the shape: a block priced a little under the sum of its parts, paid for on day one.

You are already recurring — you may as well be prepaid

Quarterly is the norm here, which means you are invoicing the same customer four times for something they have already agreed to. One payment removes three of those invoices.

The customer is rarely present

Most treatments happen outside or in a roof space while somebody is at work. The visit records from your phone and their balance updates, so there is never a question about whether you came.

Seasonal pressure, steady income

Call-outs spike in warm months and your costs do not care. A year sold up front smooths the part of the business that is hardest to predict.

YOUR SIDE OF IT

One screen. Who is owed what.

Every client, every remaining treatment, every package you have sold. Search by name, phone number, pet or vehicle when there is no code to scan — for the client who turned up without their phone.

WORK IT OUT

What would prepaid be worth to you?

Your own numbers, in whatever currency you price in. Nothing is sent anywhere — this runs in your browser.

Collected up front

20 customers buying a package at 132.

Still owed as service

2,640

100 visits you have been paid for and not yet delivered. This is not profit until you do the work.

You give away 360 in discount against 3,000 at single-visit prices. The gain is the cash arriving first, and the visits that would otherwise not have been booked.

Start with five free passes.

No card required. Create your Four-treatment year, issue the first pass, and see it land in a client’s wallet in about two minutes.
