Vortech vs Paywelly

Vortech is a high-speed dispatch tool built for the trades. Whether you run a crew of 5 or 50, this is how you take control of your field operations. The Priority Window: Stop "blasting" jobs to everyone at once. Vortech uses a routing system that looks at two things: Who is your best tech? and Who is the closest? The 30-Second Head Start: Your top-tier performers (Platinum and Gold) get a 30-second window to see and claim the best leads first. Closest Tech First: Even within your top tiers, the app identifies who is nearest to the job to cut down on drive time and fuel costs. Automatic Backup: If your top pros are busy, the job automatically opens up to the rest of the team so the customer never waits. Specialist Routing: Got a complex commercial leak or a high-security lockout? Elite Access: Just tap the Specialist button. Pro-Only: The job skips the general crew and goes straight to your hand-picked experts. No mistakes, no "oops" calls from the field. Live Fleet Visibility: See your entire team on one map with GPS updates every 30 seconds. Real-Time Tracking: Know exactly who is working, who is driving, and who is available. Instant Reassign: If a tech gets stuck, send the job back to the office with one tap. You're in control; cancel, re-dispatch or take care of it manually. Device Health: Check a tech's battery and signal strength at a glance. If their phone is dying, you'll know before they miss a job. Money and Paperwork—Simplified In-Field Payments: Connect your Stripe account and let techs charge cards right at the door. Automatic Math: The app calculates the "split" based on your company rules. No more Sunday night spreadsheet headaches. The week closes Tuesday at 2 a.m. — you just write the checks. Proof of Work: Techs snap photos and log expenses in the app before they leave the site. No features are gate-kept behind an additional upgrade. All current and future features are available to every user from day one. All that for a fraction of what our competitors charge. Try it out for free for 30 days and never go back.

Paperwork is the worst part of working with independent contractors. PayWelly makes it the easiest. PayWelly turns a handshake into a real contract, a payment, and a filed 1099 — one clean flow for U.S. businesses and the independent contractors they work with. Agree on the work, sign in the app, and let PayWelly handle the payment and the year-end tax paperwork. FOR BUSINESSES - Create a per-engagement Independent Contractor Agreement in minutes — hourly or flat-rate by milestone - Break a flat-rate project into milestones, each with its own scope, due date, and amount - Save a card at signing and get charged only when you approve the finished work — no funds held - Approve, and your contractor is paid the same day - W-9 collected up front; Form 1099-NEC filed automatically once a contractor crosses $2,000 for the year - Manage every engagement, location, and team member from one place FOR CONTRACTORS - Every job starts with a clear, signed agreement — you know the scope and the pay before you begin - Get paid the same day the client approves — free by bank transfer, or 3% for a same-day debit-card transfer - Keep 100% of your rate — the business covers the platform fees - Track your year-to-date earnings toward the $2,000 1099-NEC threshold - Take on more than one client, on your own schedule - A signed, timestamped record of every agreement, right in the app HOW PAYMENT WORKS The business saves a card when the contract is signed and is charged only when the work is approved — and that's the moment the contractor gets paid. If the business doesn't respond, the engagement auto-confirms 24 hours after completion. PayWelly absorbs Stripe processing fees. PRICING YOU CAN SEE Businesses pay a $19.99 platform fee per contract plus 15% commission (flat-rate milestone contracts add $4.99 per milestone). Contractors pay nothing to get paid by bank transfer. Every fee is shown before anyone agrees. No subscription. BUILT ON TRUST - Identity verification for every contractor before their first payout - Payments processed by Stripe; card details are tokenized and never stored on our servers - A documented e-signature record for every contract - In-app dispute resolution for completion or payment concerns PRIVACY Location is used only at clock-in for on-site engagements — foreground only, never in the background.
