Quick answers to questions contractors ask most about QuoteBolt.
Can my customer pay without a Stripe account?
Yes. Your customer does not need a Stripe account. When online pay is available, they open the invoice link and pay on a secure Stripe checkout page — they are paying you, not signing up for Stripe.
Can I use QuoteBolt without Stripe?
Yes. Stripe is optional. Quotes and invoices still work without it. Without Stripe Connect ready, customers will not see Pay Now. Collect payment your usual way, then use Record payment on the invoice.
How many quotes and invoices can I send?
On Free, you get 5 quotes and 3 invoices per month, with a watermark on PDFs and public pages. Pro ($39/mo) and Elite ($79/mo) remove those monthly caps and the watermark. Pricing holds through 2026.
Can multiple people use the same account?
Yes. Invite teammates under Settings → Users. Each person signs in with their own login and a role (Admin, Manager, or User). See Team roles and permissions.
Do my customers need a QuoteBolt account?
No. Customers view quotes and pay invoices through public links — no signup required.
Can I download a PDF of my quote?
Yes. From the quote, use Download PDF (or the download control on the quote) to get a PDF you can print or share.
What trades does QuoteBolt support?
QuoteBolt is built for small trade shops — especially plumbing, HVAC, and electrical. During setup you choose your trade (including Other). The quoting and invoicing flow works the same across trades.
Is my data secure?
QuoteBolt uses encrypted connections (TLS) and account authentication. Your business data stays in your account for your team to use.
