Worked example: a $120 house cleaning
A solo cleaner bills a client $120 for one cleaning.
Invoice Simple, client pays by card: 3.49% of $120 = $4.19, plus $0.49 = $4.68 in fees. The cleaner receives $115.32.
Invoice Simple, client pays with PayPal or Venmo: Same rate, 3.49% + $0.49 = $4.68 in fees.
Invoice Simple, client pays by bank (ACH): 1% of $120 = $1.20, plus $0.30 = $1.50 in fees.
SnapPaid, client pays in Venmo, Cash App, PayPal or Zelle: 0% of $120 = $0 taken by SnapPaid. SnapPaid adds no processing fee. Any fee set by the payment app itself is separate.
Plan cost for a busier month. A cleaner with 4 weekly clients sends about 17 bills a month. On Invoice Simple that is more than the Essentials limit of 3 and the Plus limit of 10, so it needs Premium at $21.99 a month. On SnapPaid it is the Unlimited plan at $9.99 a month. If all 17 cleanings at $120 were paid by card on Invoice Simple, the fees would be 17 x $4.68 = $79.56 that month.
