How payment flows
Traeos handles the money so you don't have to chase invoices. The client pays through the platform, and your earnings are released to you after the work is done.
- 1
You send a quote
The client sees a clear, itemized price before any work begins. - 2
The client approves and pays securely
Payment is collected through Traeos when the job is booked or completed. - 3
You complete the work
Mark the service complete in the app. - 4
Your payout is released
Funds head to your linked bank account.
Quotes & your pricebook
You set your own prices. Your pricebook stores your common services so you can quote in seconds, and every quote can be broken into line items — materials, labor, and any extras — so the client sees exactly what they're paying for.
Bigger jobs & milestones
For larger work, a quote can be split into milestones. The client approves and pays as each phase is finished, so you're paid along the way instead of waiting until the very end.
Getting paid out
During onboarding you connect a bank account in the Get Paid step. After a job is complete (or after each milestone), your earnings are paid out to that account. Payouts typically arrive within a few business days, depending on your bank.
What Traeos charges
Traeos is free to join and there's no subscription — we only earn when you do. Two things come out of a payment, and that's it:
Traeos fee · a flat 5%
Payment processing
The exact numbers, including how processing fees are handled, are spelled out in the Fees & Payments policy.
Tips
Clients can add a tip for great work. The platform fee never applies to tips — they're yours. (As with any card payment, standard processing still applies.)
