FieldPay Guide

The Best Invoice App for Electricians in 2026

Wire the job, send the invoice, get paid — all before you load the last tool. FieldPay makes invoicing as fast as the work itself.

Electricians are one of the most in-demand trades in the country, yet many are still writing invoices by hand or emailing basic PDFs. That means delayed payments, unprofessional presentation, and hours lost chasing customers. In 2026 there's a better way.

What Electricians Need in an Invoice App

How FieldPay Works for Electricians

Pre-saved electrical rates

Save your standard rates once — "Service call — $95", "Electrical labor — $110/hr", "Panel upgrade labor", "Outlet installation" — and tap them when building any invoice. Your most common charges are always one tap away.

Tax materials, not labor

Mark each line item as taxable or non-taxable. Electrical materials — wire, breakers, outlets, panels — are taxable. Labor is not. FieldPay calculates the split automatically and shows the correct total on every invoice.

Credit card payments via PayPal

Homeowners and commercial clients increasingly prefer to pay by card. Every FieldPay invoice includes a PayPal button that accepts credit and debit cards — no PayPal account required for your customer. No extra setup required for you.

Professional invoices for commercial clients

Property managers, general contractors, and commercial clients expect professional documentation. FieldPay invoices show your business name, address, phone, detailed line items, and correct tax — everything a commercial client needs to process payment through their accounts payable.

💡 Electricians doing commercial work report that professional invoicing reduces payment disputes by over 60% compared to handwritten receipts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use FieldPay for both residential and commercial electrical work?

Yes. Residential customers can pay via PayPal, CashApp, Venmo, or credit card. Commercial clients who pay by check see your full business details and payment instructions automatically on every invoice.

Can I add permit numbers or job site addresses to an invoice?

Yes. Use the Notes field to add permit numbers, job site addresses, or any project details. Notes appear on the customer invoice and on printed copies.

How do I handle invoicing for larger electrical projects with multiple phases?

Create a separate invoice for each phase or payment milestone. Each gets its own invoice number and the customer gets a new payment link. Your customer history shows the complete picture for each project.
