What is construction payment software?

Construction payment software is a way to automate the payment process between general contractors and their subs or clients. It allows them to pay and get paid online through use of a credit card or e-check.

Does my construction company need online payment software?

Yes. It helps with having a healthy cash flow and keeps subs and clients happy. If you’re waiting weeks to get paid, you’ve upset subs with delayed payments or you’ve lost out on a job because the client wanted more convenient options – it’s time to upgrade.

How do I start using Buildertrend’s Client Payments?

You can apply directly from your Buildertrend account by going to Payments Settings. We’ll need key business and ownership details – including tax ID, bank account info and identity verification for owners or controllers. Once your application is reviewed and approved, you’ll receive your monthly processing limit and can start accepting payments right away.

What payment methods can my clients use?

Clients can pay using ACH (bank transfer), debit and credit cards, Apple Pay or Google Pay. No portal sign-up is required – just a secure link they can click to pay instantly.

Can I pass payment processing fees to my clients?

Yes. With just one click, you can choose to pass credit card processing fees directly to your clients – giving you more control over your bottom line.

Is there a limit to how much I can process?

Yes. Every Buildertrend Payments account starts with a monthly processing limit based on your business and financial profile – similar to a credit card limit. You’ll also have a per-transaction cap of $120,000. As you continue processing payments and our payment processor gains familiarity with your account, your limit may increase over time. Many builders see their limits grow as their account matures.

Can I pay vendors and suppliers, or only subcontractors?

You can support payments to subs, vendors, suppliers and any other project-related partners.

How much faster are ACH payments compared to traditional methods?

Subcontractors and vendors typically receive payments around seven business days faster than mailing or manual methods.

Does using Buildertrend reduce errors?

Yes. Payments are synced with the job, eliminating duplicate data entry, manual calculations and misaligned approvals.

How does this save me administrative time?

By keeping requests, approvals and payments in one system, Contractors avoid switching platforms, re-entering data and tracking multiple tools.

Is Buildertrend Payments secure?

Yes. All transactions are encrypted and follow industry-standard security protocols for financial data.

Can I control who can issue payments?

Yes, you can assign roles and permissions to ensure only authorized users approve or send payments in Buildertrend.

What documentation is stored?

Every payment, approval and job-related transaction is automatically synced and documented in Buildertrend for easy reference and audit purposes.

How is pricing structured?

Pricing is per transaction. You pay only for what you use with no extra platform fees.
