How partner pricing works

No more guessing if your monthly subscription will pay for itself. You only pay when a real, verified lead lands in your inbox.

  1. 1. Apply (5 min)

    Tell us your business, service area, vehicle makes you handle, and license info. Approval in one business day.

  2. 2. Fund your wallet ($100 min)

    Add $100, $250, $500 or $1,000 via Stripe. The same wallet covers every lead you accept — no monthly bills, no surprises.

  3. 3. Get matched leads ($25 each)

    When a customer in your service area submits a request that matches your makes, we deduct $25 from your wallet and route the lead to you in real-time.

Why $25 a lead?

Industry-standard pay-per-lead pricing for automotive locksmith work runs $40 to $80 a lead on directories like Thumbtack, Angi, and HomeAdvisor. According to FieldEdge's home-services lead-cost benchmark, directories often capture 15-40% of a partner's revenue per job — a tax most independents can't pass back to the customer.

We price aggressively at $25 because we'd rather have you working on jobs than calculating CPL break-even. At $25, even a one-key replacement at $180 returns a 7× margin. A smart-key job at $450 returns 18×.

We also give you the right to dispute any lead within 24 hours — wrong number, wrong vehicle, outside service area, duplicate, or already serviced. Approved disputes refund your wallet in full.
