The Average Locksmith Can Save /year on Credit Card Processing

Stop Giving Your Hard-Earned Key Money to the Suits—Keep It With WrenchPay

If you cut keys, pop locks, and rescue frantic homeowners at 2 a.m., you already know margin killers lurk everywhere—from fuel to insurance to the random customer who “swears” they called the wrong locksmith. The last thing you need is another silent thief skimming 3–4 percent off every credit card swipe. That’s exactly what most processors do—and it adds up fast. A small locksmith van billing $30 k a month loses roughly $1,000 every 30 days to junk fees. That’s a new drill, an extra tech on call, or a family weekend you just funded for a corporate exec.

Built for Trades Like Yours

WrenchPay was forged for blue-collar businesses—construction crews, contractors, and service pros who live on calluses and coffee. Locksmith shops fit that DNA perfectly. Our program lets you legally pass the card fee to the customer (they already expect it) or run a flat, no-nonsense rate if you’d rather keep pricing simple. Either way, your credit card processing costs drop to zero or darn close.

Simple Gear That Works in the Field

Whether you’re rekeying a storefront or programming FOBs in a tight apartment hallway, you need hardware that just works. Our mobile credit card terminal runs on Wi-Fi or 4G, prints receipts on the spot, and stores transactions offline if the cell signal ghosts you inside a steel-door utility room. Tap, chip, or swipe—done in seconds, no phone pairing gymnastics required.

Rock-Solid Security Without the Jargon

Behind that simplicity sits a modern security stack—EMV chips, end-to-end encryption, round-the-clock fraud alerts, and extra cardholder authentication baked in. Translation: you stay compliant with all the alphabet-soup regulations (PCI, SOC2, and friends) without memorizing any of them. Your customers’ card data stays locked up tighter than a bank vault, and your business stays out of headline-making breaches.

Cash Flow You Can Depend On

We won’t play the “mystery hold” game that leaves you guessing when funds will land. Transactions clear on a predictable schedule so you can order stock, pay techs, and keep the van rolling. Need to send digital invoices for commercial jobs or after-hours lockouts? Fire them off by text or email, complete with automatic reminders, so you quit chasing checks.

A Partner That Actually Pays You Back

Skip the army of commissioned reps. Instead of stuffing a salesperson’s pockets, we cut you a quarterly profit-share check—25 percent of what we earn on your account—because true partners win together. Add transparent, one-page pricing (no gotcha line items) and U.S.-based support that answers like a buddy’s cell, and you’ve got a processing relationship that finally feels fair.
