The card fee problem for plumbers
Plumbing work is high-stakes and high-ticket. A sewer line repair runs $3,000–$8,000. A water heater replacement is $1,200–$3,500. An emergency call on a Saturday night commands a premium. When customers pay by card — and most of them do — you're eating $35–$232 per job in card processing fees that most plumbing invoicing software just ignores.
KoPay gives plumbers a direct solution. KoPay automatically calculates the processing fee and adds it to every invoice as a transparent line item. The customer sees the fee before they confirm payment. You receive your full quoted amount — labor, materials, emergency surcharges, and all.
For a plumbing company running 5 service calls per day at an average of $400, that's $500,000 in annual revenue. At 65% card payment rate, you're processing $325,000 in card transactions. Standard processing fees eat roughly $9,425 of that every year. With KoPay, that $9,425 goes to customers instead of your payment processor.
KoPay was built for businesses exactly like yours — field service, fast-moving, high-ticket, and often waiting too long to get paid. Our fee pass-through, digital estimates, and Stripe-powered pay links are built to fix the billing problems that have always slowed plumbing companies down.

The real math
Consider a residential plumbing company billing $300,000 per year across service calls, repairs, and small remodels. The average job runs $380. About 65% of customers pay by card. That's $195,000 in card transactions annually.
At standard Stripe rates (2.9% + $0.30 per transaction), the processing cost on those transactions is roughly $5,655 per year — absorbed silently without KoPay.
With KoPay, that $5,655 moves to customer invoices as a transparent line item. Over three years, the business recovers $16,965. Over five years, $28,275 — enough to cover a truck payment or fund a significant equipment purchase.
Most plumbers never run this math. They accept card fees as the cost of doing business. KoPay fixes that assumption automatically — no pricing change, no renegotiation, no awkward conversation. Just a line on every invoice that shows customers exactly what the card fee costs before they tap to pay.
