What Quotebird does for tradies in New Zealand
Each page covers one part of the job as it works in New Zealand: GST-inclusive prices, invoices that follow IRD’s rules, and the Fair Trading Act’s rules for uninvited direct sales.
Quotes from photos
Take a few photos, say what the job needs, and Quotebird drafts the quote from your own price book, GST included. You check every line and send it.
Price book
Your labour, parts and call-out charges in one price book, in Kiwi trade words. Quotes and invoices take your prices with GST included; the AI never sets one.
Quotes and invoices paid online
Send quotes and invoices as a link or an email. Customers accept and pay by card, and Quotebird emails reminders about unpaid invoices for you.
Deposits and stage payments
Ask for a deposit when the quote is accepted, bill bigger jobs in stages, and get a heads-up when a deposit goes past the 10% Consumer Protection advises.
Variations
A variation to an accepted quote becomes a numbered change order, GST included. The customer signs it before you start, and the price and final invoice follow.
GST invoices
Turn the quote into an invoice in one tap. Your GST number and the GST on every one, and over $1,000 the buyer’s name and a contact. Numbered, never deleted.
Tap to Pay and card payments
Take cards on your phone with Tap to Pay, or send a link the customer pays by card. It all goes straight into your own Stripe account, in NZ dollars.
Uninvited direct sales
Started the sale at the customer’s door or with your own call? Quotebird adds the front page the Fair Trading Act asks for and holds payment for 5 working days.
