What Payzer is

Payzer, now part of the Wex family, combines card and check processing, consumer financing applications, and quoting in a field-first app for mechanical contractors, so a technician can present a price, run financing, and take payment on site. Keeping financing in the same flow as the quote is what lifts approval rates.

Best for

Service contractors who want payment and financing presented together in the field

Watch out

Its job management features are lighter than a dedicated platform, so most companies use it alongside one rather than instead.

What it does well

  • Financing application completed on site
  • Card, ACH, and check capture in the field
  • Quoting with options included
  • Good reporting on technician sales

Integrates with

QuickBooks ยท ServiceTitan ยท FieldEdge

Integration lists change often and "integrates" can mean anything from a real two-way sync to a one-way push through Zapier. Ask the vendor which fields move, in which direction, and how often.

Before you commit

  • Compare total effective rate, not headline rate: interchange, assessment, platform markup, and chargeback handling.
  • Surcharging rules vary by state and card network. Get the compliance answer in writing.
  • For financing, know who pays the dealer fee and how it affects your margin on a promotional plan.
  • Check approval rates across credit tiers โ€” a lender that only approves prime leaves money on the table.
  • Make sure deposits and progress payments are supported, not just pay-in-full invoices.

How to judge it in a trial

Run one real job through it end to end โ€” not the demo data. Quote it, schedule it, do it, invoice it, take the payment. Then ask the only question that matters on day 400: did the people who have to use this every day find it faster than what they do now? Friction you notice in week one compounds forever, and tool-hopping costs more than any feature gap.
