Quoting app for UK trades
The quoting app
that takes the deposit too.
Write the quote on your phone and send it as one link by WhatsApp or email. Your customer reads it, accepts by typing their name, and pays the deposit from the same page. No app for them, and no monthly fee for you.
No card to start · free to send quotes · 2.5% when you're paid, capped at £500 · plus processing
A proper quote, written in minutes
Everything a customer expects to see on a quote, on your phone, without a template to fill in.
Line by line
Labour and materials on their own lines. Save the items you use most and add them again in a tap.
Your name and logo
Your business name and logo on the quote, the customer's page and the PDF, so you look established from your first job.
VAT if you're registered
Turn on VAT in your profile with your VAT number, and it's added to your quotes for you. Not registered? Your quote just shows the price.
A deposit, or stages
Ask for a deposit up front, or split a bigger job into stages, each with its own name and amount, paid as the work goes.
How long the price stands
Add a "valid until" date. If it runs out without a yes, we email you, so you can follow up or re-price.
Your cancellation terms
Your cancellation policy sits on the quote, and the customer agrees to it when they accept.
Already written it?
Upload a quote you wrote in Word, on paper or in another app, and WorkPaid fills it in for you to check. Available once you've set up payments.
Start from a past job
Duplicate a quote you've sent before and change what's different. Same kind of job, half the typing.
Call-outs too
A fixed-fee call-out is a quick quote of its own. Show the customer a QR code and they pay before you leave.
From quote to deposit, in one link
What happens after you tap send.
01
Send it as one link
Share it by WhatsApp or email, or copy the link and send it however you like. Your customer needs no app and no account, and you can see when they've opened it.
02
Get the yes in writing
They accept by typing their name, and WorkPaid records who accepted and when, on the quote PDF and the invoice. If they want changes, revise the quote and they accept the new version. What a quote holds you both to is in quote or estimate.
03
Take the deposit there and then
They pay from the same page, by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or straight from their bank, and it goes to your own bank account. Or they accept now and pay later, and we handle the reminders. Extra work found halfway through a deposit-and-final job? Add it, and the customer approves it from their phone.
Quoting in the customer's home?
If the customer agrees to the job while you're at their home, they usually get 14 days to cancel, and there's information you have to give them. Our guide to the 14-day cooling-off rule explains it, and how to start work inside the 14 days if they ask you to.
Not sure what a quote should say? Our guide to how to write a quote has a checklist and an example, and there's a free quote template in Word or as a printable PDF.

Common questions
Is the quoting app free?
It's free to send quotes, and there's no monthly fee. When a customer pays you through WorkPaid, our fee is 2.5%, capped at £500 a quote, plus the processing, as on a card machine: 1.5% + 20p by card, or 0.5% + 20p, capped at £5, by Pay by Bank. You can pass our 2.5% on to the customer instead.
Does my customer need an app or an account?
No. They open the link on their phone or computer, read the quote, accept it by typing their name and pay from the same page. There's nothing to download and no account to make.
Can I upload a quote I've already written?
Yes, once you've set up payments. Upload a PDF of up to 5 pages, or up to 5 photos, of a quote you wrote in Word, on paper or in another app, and WorkPaid fills in a new quote from it. You check it and change anything you need before you send it.
What happens when the customer accepts?
They type their name to accept, and WorkPaid records who accepted and when. That goes on the quote PDF and the invoice, and you see it in WorkPaid straight away. If they want changes, revise the quote and they accept the new version. They can pay the deposit there and then, or accept now and pay later.
