8. How do I pay the selected contractor?

You are here:
Estimated reading time: < 1 min

Payment is automatic through AllBetter Escrow — you never pay until you’re satisfied.

How payment works:

  1. Accept a bid and add a payment method
  2. Your funds are held in Escrow Shield — the contractor can’t access them yet
  3. The pro completes the work
  4. You inspect and tap Release Payment when satisfied

The small service fee is shown upfront at checkout — no surprises. All payments are processed by Stripe (PCI Level 1), the same processor used by Amazon and Google.

Important: Keep all payments in-app. Off-platform payments void your escrow protection and dispute resolution rights.
