What changes with MakeHay
Quote, schedule, get paid, come back.
Schedule around the weather, not despite it
Outdoor details and rain don't mix, and a rule in MakeHay says so: rain under 30% on the visit, checked at the customer's address from the National Weather Service forecast, with a minimum temperature for the cold months. Fleet washes repeat weekly or monthly with an end date.
- Rain and cold flags on driveway details, per address
- Fleet washes generated as recurring visits
- No rule on jobs in a covered bay
- Day-before reminders so the car is unlocked and empty
Quote it before you leave the site
Quote from your price book: exterior, interior, and full detail as three packages on one quote, with ceramic coating, headlight restoration, and pet hair as add-on lines. The customer picks and approves from their phone with the deposit collected in the same tap, so the Saturday slot is real.
Get paid without chasing
Invoice when the last panel is dry: one click, a card or bank pay link, and most customers pay on the spot. Fleet accounts get a monthly invoice with ACH. Overdue reminders go out automatically.
Keep every customer for the re-do
A detail customer comes back every quarter and a fleet account every week. Every customer keeps their vehicles, the package they had, the photos you sent, and the balance, so the next booking is a click and the ceramic upsell is on the record.
Give every customer a portal
One private link per customer: messages with photos, documents you request, a heads-up on any contract waiting for their e-signature, and invoices they pay. No app, no password, free.

FAQ
Mobile detailing questions, answered straight.
Is it really free for detailers?
Yes. Unlimited customers, quotes, scheduling, and invoices, free forever, not a trial. No monthly plan, no seat fees, and no credit card to start.
Can I take a deposit so people show up?
Yes. Set a deposit on the quote as a percent or a dollar amount. It is collected when the customer approves, by card or bank transfer, and credited against the final invoice.
Does it handle fleet accounts?
Yes. Set the account to repeat weekly or monthly with an end date, log each vehicle as a line, and send one invoice a month with ACH.
Can I sell packages?
Yes. Put exterior, interior, and full detail on one quote as three packages, mark the one you recommend, and add ceramic and other extras as lines.
What happens when it rains?
Driveway visits carry the forecast for their own address and flag by your rule; jobs in a covered bay get no rule. Drag the outdoor work to a clearer day the calendar suggests.
What's the catch for a detailing business?
No catch. The software costs us almost nothing per detailer to run, so it is free. Online card and ACH payments carry processing costs, as they would with any provider.
