Is this a subscription product for my customers?
Not in the billing sense. Each cycle creates a genuine job and a genuine itemized invoice, charged individually to the saved card. That matters when a customer queries a charge or an accountant asks what a payment was for — there is a job and an invoice behind every one.
What cadences can I set?
Weekly, every other week, or monthly. A plan can also be capped at a fixed number of visits, which is how you sell “twelve months of maintenance” and have it actually end after twelve months.
What happens when the card on file fails?
The decline is classified rather than simply logged. Some are retried automatically; the ones that will not succeed are routed to a card-update link for the customer, so a replaced card is something they fix instead of something you chase.
Can I pause or cancel a plan?
Yes, and the visits it has already produced stay as they are — real jobs with real invoices and real history. Stopping the plan stops the next cycle; it does not rewrite the work you have already done.
What if I need to raise the price?
Change the per-visit price on the plan and the next cycle bills at the new one. Visits already run and already invoiced are not touched — an invoice the customer has paid is a record, not a setting. Telling them before the new price lands is on you, and it is the part worth doing properly: an unexplained increase on a saved card is how a good maintenance customer becomes a chargeback.
Do recurring charges cost more than one-off ones?
LGQ applies the same plan platform-fee rate to eligible recurring and one-off service payments. Included on every base plan. Flex starts at $0/month plus a 1.25% LGQ platform fee. Solo, Growth, and Scale add a base subscription and lower that fee to 0.50%, 0.25%, or 0.10%. Stripe's processing and payment-infrastructure costs set by Stripe are separate.
