Auto repair shop payments that stop eating your margins
BRIDGEVANTI sets up auto repair shops on Stackably with dual pricing, so customers who pay by card cover the processing cost on big repair tickets, plus ACH payments and invoices customers can pay from their phone. We set it up, train your front counter, and stay your direct contact afterward. When you need a lift, diagnostic equipment or a second bay, we connect you with funding too.
Why do repair shops pay so much to get paid?
Repair tickets are big, and a percentage fee on a big ticket is real money. In our experience, many shops are already surcharging to cover it, which adds a fee at the end that some customers don't like seeing.
Shop owners we talk with are glad to be able to accept ACH payments for large repairs and to send invoices by text so customers can pay without coming back to the counter.
What do you get with Stackably through BRIDGEVANTI?
- A smart terminal or tablet POS at the counter.
- Invoices you can create, send and collect, including by text message.
- ACH payments, a lower-cost option for large repair bills.
- Appointments so customers can book service and you can manage availability.
- Products and inventory for parts, plus a QuickBooks integration.
- Core software features at no software cost, with setup, training and Jacob's direct number.
Dual pricing or surcharging: which is better for a repair shop?
Surcharging adds a fee on top when a customer pays by credit card. Dual pricing shows two prices up front, cash and card, and the customer chooses. Both shift the processing cost, but dual pricing avoids the surprise fee at checkout, and it follows different rules than surcharging. We'll walk through which fits your shop.

Frequently asked questions.
I already surcharge. Should I switch to dual pricing?
Maybe. Surcharging adds a fee at checkout, while dual pricing shows both prices up front and lets the customer choose. Many owners find dual pricing easier for customers to accept. We'll compare both for your shop.
Can my customers pay by ACH?
Yes. ACH bank payments are a lower-cost option for large repair bills, and you can offer them alongside cards.
Can I text invoices to customers?
Yes. You can send invoices by text so customers can review and pay from their phone.
Does Stackably work with QuickBooks?
Stackably lists a QuickBooks integration. We'll confirm how it fits your bookkeeping during setup.

Yes. We connect shop owners with funding partners for equipment financing, lines of credit, term loans and SBA loans. All funding is subject to approval.
