Worked example: a $200 window cleaning
A solo window cleaner bills a client $200 for one job.
Tofu, client pays by card through Stripe:
- Stripe: 2.9% of $200 = $5.80, plus $0.30 = $6.10.
- Tofu: 1% of $200 = $2.00.
- Total: $8.10 in fees. The cleaner receives $191.90.
SnapPaid, client pays in Venmo, Cash App, PayPal or Zelle: 0% of $200 = $0 taken by SnapPaid. SnapPaid adds no processing fee. Any fee set by the payment app itself is separate.
Over a month. A window cleaner who bills 12 jobs of $200 a month by card on Tofu pays 12 x $8.10 = $97.20 in fees, of which 12 x $2.00 = $24.00 is Tofu's 1%. The Solo plan is $15 or $29 a month on top. SnapPaid Unlimited is $9.99 a month.
