Performance Fees — Inquiries and Bookings.
Each time a customer contacts you through our platform to request an estimate or book a service, a flat $10 for recurring service businesses — or $20 for project-based businesses — is charged and invoiced monthly. Captcha-verified. Duplicate-filtered. And if a charge ever looks wrong, you can dispute it with just a single click directly in your client dashboard — you never pay for something that wasn't a genuine opportunity.
The fee is determined by the nature of the work — a single estimate lead can represent a large contract, while recurring bookings build value through repeat visits. It's priced to be fair to both, and it affects how your website is structured to handle leads. Recurring service businesses — think housekeepers, mobile detailers, and lawn care — pay $10 per verified booking. Project-based businesses — construction, land clearing, and moving jobs — pay $20 per qualified estimate request.

Why This Model Works For You (The Win-Win Math)
Traditional agencies lock you into high monthly retainers from day one — whether they deliver results or not. With Tidewise, your cost is directly tied to the leads we actually bring in.
Let's be real about the numbers: Most local service partners (lawn care, detailers, cleaners, and local contractors) land and stay in the Dipping the Toe ($200/mo) or Rising Tide ($500/mo) tiers. The higher tiers are there for transparency as you grow. If your business scales and you end up paying us $3,000 a month, it's because we are delivering 30 to 60 qualified leads every single month—meaning your phones are ringing off the hook, your crews are booked solid, and your revenue has skyrocketed. We only make the big numbers when you make the giant numbers.
Every single lead is audited for quality before you're charged, and you can dispute any invalid lead with just a single click directly in your client dashboard. No guesswork, no inflated invoices, no risk.
The 90-Day Promise
After 90 days, the numbers don't lie. If we've delivered, we'll ask for a one-year partnership. If we haven't, we shake hands and part ways — no hard feelings, no long goodbyes.
