What It Does

Every dollar tracked.
No middleman.

Payment processors charge you a percentage of every job you close. BeardPay moves money and creates a sovereign audit trail -- without the cut.

Deposits
Collect upfront without friction
Send a deposit request link. Customer pays. BeardPay logs the transaction, mints a receipt, and updates the job record in CRM. No payment terminal required.
Invoicing
Invoice on close automatically
When Field closes a job and BeardSign gets the signature, BeardPay can auto-generate the final invoice for the balance. One trigger, full close-out.
Receipts
Hash-chained audit trail
Every transaction gets a SHA-256 hash receipt stored in BeardPay's ledger. Proof of payment that cannot be altered -- for disputes, accounting, or licensing audits.
Ledger
Full transaction history on your server
Every payment, every deposit, every refund -- logged in SQLite on your VPS. Scout can query your payment history. Your accountant gets a clean export.
What It Replaces

Stop paying forever
for tools you'll never own.

Every one of these charges you monthly. None of them talk to each other. All of them own your data.
