Payment Methods Accepted
CrewBrix supports the following payment methods for field collection:
- Credit and debit cards — tap to pay (NFC) using the customer's phone or physical card via your phone's NFC reader.
- Apple Pay / Google Pay — contactless payment in seconds.
- Manual card entry — type the card number if NFC isn't available.
- Payment link — send a link via SMS or email; the customer pays on their device.
A Stripe account must be connected to accept card payments. See Setting Up Stripe Integration.
Collecting Payment on a Completed Job
- Open the job and tap Collect Payment.
- Select the invoice to be paid (or create one inline if not yet invoiced).
- Choose a payment method:
- Tap to Pay — hold the customer's card or phone near yours.
- Send Link — enter or confirm the customer's phone number or email; they receive a payment link instantly.
- Enter Card — type card details manually.
- Confirm the amount and tap Charge.
- A receipt is sent to the customer automatically and the invoice is marked Paid.
Splitting Payments
To split a payment (e.g. partial on card, rest by check):
- On the payment screen, tap Partial Payment.
- Enter the amount to charge now.
- The remaining balance stays on the invoice with an Outstanding status.
- Record a check or cash payment later under the invoice → Record Offline Payment.
Recording Offline Payments (Cash / Check)
If the customer pays by cash or check, you don't run anything through Stripe. Instead:
- Open the invoice and tap Record Payment.
- Select Cash or Check, enter the amount and any reference number.
- Tap Save. The invoice is marked Paid and no Stripe fees apply.
Processing Fees
Stripe charges a standard processing fee per transaction. CrewBrix does not add additional fees on top of Stripe's rate. Your Stripe dashboard shows a full breakdown of fees and payouts.
