How it works

Quote more jobs without leaving the one you're on

1

See the job before you price it

Homeowners can't post a job without photos or a walkthrough video, plus structured answers about the problem. No more quoting blind off a two-line text.

2

Quote from wherever you are

Price it from the truck, the job site, or the couch. Most leads can be quoted in minutes — you're one of 2–3 invited pros, and quoting is always free.

3

Win the job, book the date

The customer compares quotes side by side and books. Win or lose, you get an answer — no ghosting, no leads that go nowhere silently.

4

Do the work, get paid

Job-day tracking, invoicing, and payment run through the app. Money lands in your account by direct deposit — standard payouts are free, and you can cash out early if you need it.

Need to see it first?

Some jobs need eyes on site. Charge for the visit.

When photos aren't enough, request a paid site visit instead of quoting blind. You name the fee, we collect it from the homeowner, and 100% of it is yours — BridgeTrade takes 0% of site-visit fees. Hired for the job afterward? The visit fee is credited back on your invoice, so the customer never pays twice. Your time is never free.

What it costs

Free to quote. You only pay when you get paid.

No subscription. No lead fees. No charge for quoting, and nothing to pay when you lose a bid. We earn a commission only on work you actually complete and get paid for — so we do well only when you do.

$0

To join and start quoting

$0

Per lead — quote as many as you like, win or lose

100%

Of any site-visit fee you charge

The one thing you do pay: a commission on completed work.

It comes out of jobs you finish and get paid for — never from a quote, a lead, or a job you lose. We confirm your rate with you during onboarding, before you take a single job. Standard payouts are free.
