Roofing Companies: Stop Paying $500+ to Process a Single Roof Payment

Roofing contractors process the largest residential service payments. Network Offset Pricing eliminates processing costs.

Key Takeaway

Roofing contractors process the largest residential service payments. Network Offset Pricing eliminates processing costs.

A roof replacement is one of the most expensive home services — $8,000–$25,000+ depending on size, materials, and complexity. When homeowners pay by card (and they increasingly do), the processing fee on a single job can exceed $500.

For a roofing company doing $100,000–$500,000/month in card sales, annual processing fees reach **$30,000 to $210,000**.

The Roofing Processing Problem

Insurance Claims and Deductibles

Storm damage roofs are partially insurance-funded, but homeowners pay deductibles ($1,000–$2,500) and upgrades by card. Supplemental payments and change orders generate additional transactions.

Financing Programs Are Even More Expensive

Third-party financing (GreenSky, Mosaic, Dividend Finance) charges contractors 5%–15% in dealer fees — far more expensive than card processing.

Network Offset Pricing for Roofing

Why Homeowners Accept It

  • The estimate presents both options before the job starts.
  • High-ticket jobs strongly incentivize check/ACH. Saving $560 on a $14,000 roof is significant. Many homeowners prefer check for large home improvement payments.
  • Insurance-related payments are expected. Homeowners dealing with roof claims are focused on getting the work done.
