How Goodleap Payments helps contractors get paid faster

GoodLeap has launched a new payment processing platform aimed at resolving long-standing payment delays for home improvement and solar installation contractors. Dubbed GoodLeap Payments, the product is designed to simplify how contractors get paid, offering faster transactions and tighter integration with accounting systems — no additional hardware required.
“Contractors today juggle a patchwork of disconnected payments that hurt their business growth and frustrate their consumers,” said Hayes Barnard, Chairman and CEO of GoodLeap. “In an almost trillion-dollar home upgrade market, this fragmentation is a major barrier to growth.”
Contractor cashflow conundrum
According to company data, 69% of contractors still rely on paper checks — an outdated practice that slows cash flow and increases administrative overhead. Many contractors still wait 60 days or more to receive payment for completed work. GoodLeap says its new software addresses that bottleneck by enabling remote payments, tap-to-pay functionality, and instant eCheck deposits.

The platform also supports recurring payments, dispute resolution, and QuickBooks integration for smoother reconciliation and bookkeeping.
