Frequently Asked Questions

How do landscapers bill for recurring lawn care?

Set up recurring invoices (Square, Jobber) with card on file. Charge monthly for maintenance contracts. For per-visit billing, invoice after each service with autopay enabled.

Collect 30-50% deposit when contract signed, progress payments at milestones, balance on completion. Square Invoices handles deposits well. Create separate invoice for each payment phase.
