The install marketplace where the pro keeps 100%.

Two sides, one fair deal

Whether you hold the squeegee or run the shop, InstallHub was built for your side of the job.

For installers

Keep what you earn.

Independent tint, PPF, and ceramic pros — turn your skill into steady, well-paid work.

You net 100% of the payout

The platform fee and card processing are the shop’s cost, added on top. What’s posted is what lands in your account.

No bidding wars, no haggling

The shop sets one fixed payout — no negotiation. See the pay band up front, and the exact number the moment you apply. No racing rivals to the bottom.

Funded before you ever drive

The full payout is charged to the shop and secured in escrow 48 hours before the install — so a dead card surfaces days early, never when you’re standing in the bay.

You get paid even if they bail

Your kill fee is captured the day you’re awarded. If the shop cancels inside 48 hours or their card dies, that money is yours — no more blocked days for nothing.

Real jobs near you

Lock in your service area and get matched to shops in your lane — with a public profile, portfolio, and ratings that follow you.

Talk to the shop, on the record

Sort out access, timing, and specs in a secure thread tied to the job. It’s saved and can’t be edited — so there’s always a clear record.

Go Pro for a head start

Apply free as much as you want — or go Pro to see new jobs 30 minutes early, the exact payout before you apply, and an instant alert the moment a matching job posts.

For shops

Vetted hands, on demand.

Cover overflow, peak season, and specialty work — without carrying full-time payroll.

Installers on demand

Post a job, review applicants, award your pick. Fill the bay this week instead of hunting for a hire for months.

You know exactly who shows up

Day-of check-in with a 6-digit code, GPS, and an ID selfie-match. The person you hired is the person in your shop.

Deposit now, balance 48h out

Awarding charges a deposit (the platform fee, the installer’s kill-fee reserve, and card processing). The balance charges automatically 48 hours before the install — no dead card stranding anyone on the day.

Escrow protection, low fee

Funds release when you approve the work — or automatically 72 hours after the installer submits — and the take rate is 1.5–3%, not the 10–20% a staffing agency charges.

Message your installer directly

Coordinate the details in-app. Every message is saved and admin-readable, so if a job’s ever disputed, there’s a clean paper trail.

The loop

From posting to paid, in five clear steps.

No back-and-forth, no invoices, no mystery fees. Everyone can see where the job — and the money — stands at every moment.

Post the job

The shop names the vehicle, the work, and the exact payout.

Shop

Apply at the payout

Installers see the pay band, apply at the fixed price — no bidding.

Installer

Award & deposit

The shop picks a pro and pays a deposit. The balance auto-charges 48h out.

Shop

Check in on-site

Code + GPS + ID confirm you’re there. Money’s already secured.

Installer

Approve & pay

Work approved, escrow releases. The installer nets 100%.

Both

Why it holds up

The trust is engineered in, not promised.

A marketplace only works if both sides feel safe. Here’s what actually protects the money and the people.

Escrow, both ways

The shop’s money is locked up before work starts and released when you approve — or automatically 72 hours after the installer submits, so nobody waits on a silent shop.

Verified identity check-in

On arrival, the installer confirms a code, their GPS location, and a live ID match. The vetted pro is the one who shows.

Funding fails early, not on the day

The balance is charged 48h out, so a dead card surfaces days before anyone travels. Cancel 48h+ ahead and the reserve comes back; cancel later and it pays the installer.

Ratings that carry weight

Both sides review every job. KYC-verified installers and KYB-verified shops build a reputation that travels.

The math that changes everything

A take rate built to be forgotten, not felt.

100%
of the payout goes to the installer. Always.
1.5–3%
shop take rate — vs. 10–20% at typical labor marketplaces.
48h
before the install the balance is charged — a bad card surfaces before anyone drives.
