What is Proper Tradie?
Proper Tradie is a mobile-first business app built for Australian tradies. You work on the tools; Proper Tradie handles the paperwork — quotes, customer approvals, service agreements, scheduled visits, invoices, payment tracking and month-end records.
The app is published as ProperTradie on the App Store and at propertradie.com.au. Proper Tradie and ProperTradie are the same product — some people search with a space, others without.
Who Proper Tradie is for
Proper Tradie is for sole traders and small trade businesses across Australia — electricians, plumbers, builders, painters, landscapers, HVAC techs, cleaners and similar trades.
- Tradies who quote and invoice from their phone on site.
- Businesses doing one-off jobs and ongoing service agreements.
- Owners who want customer approvals, invoices and payments in one place — not a bloated accounting platform.
What you can do in Proper Tradie
Proper Tradie connects the full job money trail in one app. Customers open secure links in their browser — they do not need to download anything.
- Build quotes with line items, photos and terms. Send approval links with digital signatures.
- Create service agreements for repeat work with included services and public customer approval.
- Schedule events under agreements, complete work, add extra line items and upload photos.
- Invoice from approved quotes or completed events. Track cash, bank transfers and optional Stripe card payments.
- Link expenses to jobs, scan receipts with assisted capture, and send a Monthly Business Pack to your accountant.
What Proper Tradie is not
Proper Tradie is practical job admin for tradies — not full accounting software and not tax advice.
It sits before your accountant or accounting system: quotes, approvals, invoices, agreements, events and payment records stay organised on your phone first.
Australian-built defaults
Proper Tradie is built for how Australian tradies actually work — ABN and GST on documents, AUD pricing, Australian address defaults, and digital signature approval on customer quotes and agreements.
