How fire protection billing works in Smarfle

From the first touch to the closed loop. No missing pieces.

  1. 1

    Customer signs up for recurring service

    Via portal subscribe button or office-generated first invoice. Card saves to Stripe Customer.

  2. 2

    Auto-charge runs on schedule

    Daily cron processes recurring invoices, charges saved cards off-session. fire protection owner sleeps; revenue lands.

  3. 3

    Failed cards trigger retries + emails

    Stripe auto-retries 3-4 times. If all fail, customer gets an email link to update their card. No manual chase.

  4. 4

    Customer gets receipt + invoice instantly

    Each successful charge fires a receipt email + creates a Paid invoice in Smarfle. Aging report stays clean.

  5. 5

    Owner sees monthly recurring revenue

    Subscription dashboard shows what's coming next 30 days. Cashflow forecasting actually possible.

Where fire protection billing breaks down

The friction every fire protection owner recognizes.

✕

Annual inspection contracts billed manually each year

Forgetting to invoice = unpaid inspection = liability if something goes wrong. Recurring auto-charge eliminates the risk.

✕

Multi-building corporate accounts hard to invoice

30 buildings × 12 visits/year = a lot of line items. Smarfle bundles into one monthly recurring invoice.

✕

Emergency repair calls don't get billed promptly

Tech finishes the emergency, drives home, paper invoice waits a week. One-click invoice from WO + auto-send fixes it.
