Stop Bleeding Profit: The Contractor’s Guide to Smarter Payments
Introduction
Margins in construction are already under pressure from rising material costs, labor shortages, and economic uncertainty. The last thing you need is your payment system stealing an extra slice of your profit. Let’s explore how contractors can take back control.

The True Cost of Payment Processing
Processing fees average between 2.5% and 3.5%. On just $1M in revenue, that’s $30,000 in losses. For many small to mid-sized contractors, that’s the difference between a strong year and breaking even
Why Traditional Systems Fail Contractors
Generic processors aren’t built for the construction industry. They don’t account for big-ticket jobs, deposit schedules, or the unique cash flow challenges contractors face.
Modern Solutions: ACH, Dual Pricing, and More
Contractors now have tools to solve these problems:
ACH Payments: Cheaper and faster than cards.
Dual Pricing: Pass card fees back to the customer.
Instant Deposits: Keep your projects moving without waiting days.
Real-World Example: The $600 Swipe
Consider a roofing contractor who takes a $20,000 card payment. At 3%, that’s $600 lost in seconds. With Builder Pay Pro’s dual pricing, that same job costs $0 in fees. Multiply that over dozens of jobs per year — that’s tens of thousands back in your pocket.
