Electrical contractors live on fat tickets: panel upgrades, rewires, and commercial fit-outs that trigger holds when limits look like a retail shop. Field payment, staged deposits, and financed installs should sit on one program with underwriting that matches trade reality. We size limits for real project dollars, capture payment in the field, and keep statements legible for your office manager.

- High-ticket sales triggering holds, declines, or steep fees
- Losing bigger sales when customers cannot pay all at once
- Statements you cannot actually read or verify
