How are payment processors getting away with this??

Inspired by owner discussion on Reddit.

How are payment processors getting away with this??. For context, I'm in construction, so our margins are a little lower, but I've got to imagine that pretty much any business that isn't a fortune 500 company's gotta be feeling my pain here.

Get paid before the truck rolls

Deposits and card-on-file reduce no-shows. GC/remodel owners on Reddit cite deposit links in the quote text as the single highest no-show fix.

Invoice the day you close

Same-day invoices get paid same-week. Letting billing wait until Friday batch is how cash flow dies quietly.

Sync beats double entry

If your field tool doesn't talk to QuickBooks, someone is retyping line items at 9pm. That's margin leak.
