Contractors, studios & local services

Booked, quoted and paid — without the paperwork evening.

Customers book and pay through your website. Staff sign in to see their work. You sign in to manage quotes, schedules, customers, invoices and reporting from one connected web system.

Sound familiar?

The everyday problems this solves.

If two or three of these are true, a connected system saves you more than it costs.

  • Booking happens by phone tag, and no-shows cost you real money.
  • Estimates get typed from scratch every time, in a different format every time.
  • Invoices go out late because they're the last thing you do at night.
  • New staff get onboarded by handing them paper and hoping.
  • You can't tell which services actually make you money.

Connected in-person sales

Take payment where the work happens.

For service counters, events and mobile work, we can connect deposits, invoices, Tap to Pay or a compact reader when an in-person setup makes sense.

In-person POS systems

Selling in person? Your counter can run through the same system.

Connect online orders, counter sales, inventory and reporting. Rocket’s in-person platform fee is 0.50%; Stripe processing and hardware are separate.

At the counter

One or two iPad checkouts with a customer-facing smart reader.

On the go

Take tap, chip and swipe payments from a phone or compact reader.

Front to kitchen

Send website, counter and table orders into one live kitchen queue.

What we build

One website on the outside. One connected system behind it.

The public and private sides work together in a browser on phones, tablets and computers—without special software to install.

Online scheduling

Appointments, classes or job slots booked from your site, with reminders and your own availability rules.

Quotes & estimates

Consistent, branded estimates you can send in minutes and convert into a job.

Branded invoicing & deposits

Invoices with your logo, payable online through Stripe — with deposits taken up front.

Staff onboarding

Employee records, onboarding steps and documents, plus a staff portal for your team.

Admin portal

Jobs, revenue and staff activity in one place instead of several apps.

A site that converts

Tap-to-call, clear services and pricing, and a booking button that works on a phone.

What this normally costs

Most businesses pay for five things. You pay us for one.

Most businesses buy a website, then add separate subscriptions for ordering, scheduling, inventory, invoicing and reporting. We connect those needs through one web system instead.

Custom website + software build

$5,000 – $25,000 one time

Typical agency or freelance project pricing for a custom site with connected business features.

Restaurant POS & online ordering software

From roughly $69 – $300+ / month

Published starting subscriptions rise with added terminals, online ordering and add-on modules.

Scheduling & staff management software

From roughly $20 – $100+ / month

Priced per location or per employee on most platforms.

Invoicing & accounting add-ons

From roughly $20 – $90 / month

Branded invoicing is usually a paid tier rather than an entry-level feature.

Website hosting, domain & maintenance

From roughly $20 – $60 / month

Hosting plus a maintenance retainer, billed separately from the software above.

With Rocket Websites

$25–$35/mo

Plus a one-time $125–$175 starting setup fee, and $20 a year for a domain.

  • The build itself
  • Hosting, domain and upkeep
  • Private owner and staff portals
  • Stripe payments, online and in person

Bigger custom systems are scoped and quoted first.

Published starting prices and typical project ranges as of September 2026, shown for context only. Actual pricing varies by vendor, plan, location, hardware, number of users and promotions, and changes over time. These are not quotes, and larger custom builds with us are scoped and quoted before work starts.

The same on every plan, and only on card payments through a POS system Rocket builds and connects. Stripe’s in-person processing fee is separate.

See POS systems

Payments taken through systems we build carry your plan's 1.50%–2.00% platform fee. In-person card payments through a POS we build carry a flat 0.50%. Stripe's processing fee is separate.

Expected domain cost: $20 per year. The first year is included with a 2-year or 3+ year commitment.

Larger or unusually complex builds are scoped and quoted before work starts, and may require an additional startup fee. Rocket platform fees apply only to payments processed through systems we build. Stripe's processing fees are separate and set by Stripe.
