AskBam is built to make you money, not cost you money. Your costs go into the quote, the deposit comes in up front, and the balance is paid securely by card or straight from the bank.
No fee added to your customer's bill. Accepting a card costs you one simple flat rate, and you can build it into your price if you like. Pay-by-Bank for deposits and larger jobs costs just pennies.
One straightforward subscription for the software. Nothing taken out of your jobs, so you keep 100% of the price you set.
And when it comes to getting paid, the two things stay clearly separate:
Exactly the price on the quote. AskBam never adds a fee or surcharge to your customer's bill. The price they see is the price they pay.
One simple flat rate, deducted when you're paid, like any card machine. Build it into your price in one tap. Pay-by-Bank for deposits and larger jobs costs just pennies.
Price it in, never lose money. AskBam's quote builder builds your margin, materials, admin and running costs into every price, including the small card fee, in one tap. That's the whole point: AskBam is here to grow your revenue and make sure you get paid, so quoting right means the tech more than pays for itself and never comes out of your pocket.
When an invoice you've issued through AskBam goes unpaid, AskBam helps you chase it, starting with friendly reminders, and, where you choose to escalate, with formal steps handled through authorised third-party partners, so you can stay on the tools.
You stay informed and in control at every stage. Any fees and next steps are always agreed with you before a case is escalated.
Any regulated debt-recovery activity is carried out by authorised, third-party partners, not by AskBam directly, with all fees agreed with you in advance.
Be first in line when early access opens. Built for tradespeople who'd rather be on the tools than doing paperwork.
Any tradesperson who sends quotes to customers: plumbers, electricians, builders, roofers, landscapers, decorators, and everyone in between. Sole traders and small teams alike.
Yes. If you can send a message or a voice note on your phone, you can use AskBam. There's no app to download and nothing to learn.
Both. Forward a customer's voice note or written message, or record your own on site. AskBam turns either into a quote.
Every quote comes out clean and branded, with your business name and logo on top, itemised costs, VAT handled, laid out neat and clear for the customer.
No. The price your customer sees on the quote is the price they pay. AskBam never adds a service fee or surcharge to your customer's bill.
You keep 100% of the price you set. When a customer pays you by card through AskBam, accepting the card costs one simple flat rate, the same idea as any card machine, taken when you're paid. You can build that into your quoted price if you prefer. Deposits and larger jobs can be paid straight from the customer's bank for just pennies.
No. AskBam is a monthly subscription. You keep your full job price. The only payment cost is the standard card-acceptance rate, which is yours to absorb or build into your price.
There's a 14-day free trial with no card required. After that, AskBam Pro is £29.95/month inc VAT (or £299/year inc VAT, about two months free). Founding members (the first 250) pay £19.95/month inc VAT, fixed for 12 months, then it renews at the standard price unless you cancel.
No, that's the point. AskBam's quote builder helps you build your margin, your materials and your running costs into every price, including the small card fee in one tap. Price the job right and the tech pays for itself: getting paid through AskBam doesn't come out of your pocket.
Payments through AskBam are processed using a trusted, regulated payment provider. Payment details, transaction records and receipts are handled securely.
Stop losing evenings to paperwork and weeks to late payments. Let Bam get it done.
