Frequently asked questions

Everything about pricing, payments, your data, and getting your shop up and quoting. Can't find it? Ask us.

Billing & plans

How much does Quotra cost?+

Side Shop is $19/mo, Pro Shop $49/mo, and Premier Shop $99/mo; Enterprise is custom. Every plan is monthly — cancel anytime.

What are the plan limits?+

Each plan sets limits on users, products, and monthly quotes, jobs, and tickets. See the pricing page for the full breakdown.

Is there a free trial?+

Not at this time. If you're interested, reach out — we're happy to talk founding-shop pricing.

Can I cancel anytime?+

Yes. Plans are monthly with no contract, and you keep access through the end of your paid period.

What's your refund policy?+

Refunds are handled on a whole-month basis, and your access stays active through the end of that period. See our Refund & Cancellation policy for details.

Payments & payouts

How do my customers pay me?+

Your customers can pay by Zelle, Venmo, PayPal, Square, cash, check, or card through Stripe — whatever they're comfortable with.

Does Quotra take a cut of my sales?+

No. You connect your own Stripe account and keep 100% of every sale. Processor fees are pass-through, with no platform markup.

Can customers pay by card?+

Connect your own Stripe account and a card option appears on your invoices — the funds go straight to you.

Where does my money go?+

Straight into your own account or payment processor. Quotra never holds or routes your funds.

Do you mark up payment processing?+

Never. Every processing fee is billed straight from your processor — Quotra adds zero markup.

Can I take a deposit or partial payment?+

Yes. Require a deposit or a percent-down as part of the quote-approval flow — your customer approves and pays the deposit up front, with the balance due later.

Data & security

How is my data protected?+

Every shop is isolated at the database layer with Postgres row-level security, so one shop's data can never cross into another's.

Can other shops see my customers or pricing?+

No. Your customers, pricing, and order history are sealed off from every other shop on the platform.

Do you sell my data?+

Never. Your data is yours — we don't share or sell it, full stop.

Who owns my catalog and customer data?+

You do. Bring your own catalog and pricing, and your supplier relationships stay yours — we never step between you and your suppliers.

Do you back up my data?+

Yes — continuous backups with point-in-time recovery. Every change is captured through write-ahead-log archiving, so at most a few minutes of data is ever at risk. Backups are kept in off-site, geo-redundant storage alongside a separate nightly backup, and we test restores monthly.

Field team & mobile

Is there a mobile app?+

Yes — a mobile web surface at quotra.shop/m, with no app-store download, built for your team at the point of sale.

What can my field reps do on mobile?+

Build quotes, and pull up the jobs and quotes lists to check summaries and statuses on the go.

How do field reps sign in?+

Reps sign in with their email and password at /login (or your shop's login page) — the same way as on the web. The login page works on any mobile browser.

Can I control what my team can access?+

Yes. Each team member is assigned a role that scopes their access — an owner has full control, managers get broad administrative access, staff can build quotes and view their own work, and support roles are limited to tickets and a narrow slice of the app.

Can I approve which devices my reps use?Coming soon+

Device-trust approval is on the way.

Getting started

How do I get started?+

After you sign up, a dashboard checklist walks you through your business profile, products, and your first quote. Most shops are up and quoting in under 10 minutes.

Can I import my existing products?+

Yes — import your catalog by CSV (Pro plans and up) with column mapping for wholesaler exports, or add products by hand on any plan.

Which supplier catalogs work?+

Bring your own catalog and pricing. CSV import with column mapping handles exports from common wholesalers.

Do my customers need an account?+

No. Your customer gets a secure portal link — nothing to download, no login to create or manage on either side.

I'm switching from another tool — can I move my data?+

Yes — import your customers and products so nothing gets left behind in the move.

Product & workflow

What kinds of jobs can I run?+

Personal, corporate, non-profit, and internal jobs, side by side. Non-profits skip tax automatically, and corporate jobs add a configurable contract.

How do proofs and approvals work?+

Send your customer a portal link. They upload their own art, logos, and reference images, trade notes with your team, and approve each proof — you iterate right there until it's exactly right.

Does Quotra auto-quote or auto-approve anything?+

No. The owner is always in control — no auto-quoting, auto-responding, or AI-approved proofs.

What happens to finished jobs?+

Archive completed quotes, jobs, and invoices so your workspace shows only what is active — every historical record stays one click away.
